Stepkids - I feel for you. Been there, tried that. If you can't get their parents involved, you're in for a world of hurt. I feel sorry about the wife. She's in pain, but she needs to stand up, and hopefully get the ex involved.
The kids don't understand that you are trying to help them, not ride their asses. (Like you don't have enough bs to deal w/at work.)
You have a long, tough road to hoe. Bless you for trying.
