Today, my stepdaughter called to say hello and to give me a warning: she will do whatever it takes to keep me from having a baby with her dad, including pushing me down the stairs. I'm 12 weeks pregnant, and we were going to tell her this weekend. I'm now petrified of a 10-year-old. FML

AFEmoWifey tells us more.

We bent over backwards to make her comfortable. However, I'm not letting her have a say in my baby making. I'm 23 years older than her so she needs to be more respectful.

Push the 10 year old down the stairs? Ok, bad plan.

That is so sad, maybe you can get her some help accepting that relationship? But from now on I'd be extra careful..

I think she already knows, or else she wouldn't have burst out with such a specific threat out of the blue like that. You mention how devoted you are to her happiness. She might be scared that it will lessen or disappear entirely the moment you and her father look upon your biological offspring. I would be. My mom told me that she decided against having a child with my stepfather because she didn't want me to feel "apart." I was so touched.

I'd be filing a report instead of posting on FML.

OP, safety first. This falls under domestic abuse (yeah, it can be from kids, too). Google the National Domestic Violence Hotline for advice and local resources (sorry, can't post the link here per site rules). If you feel in immediate danger, call the cops. Best of luck.

this would be fair except for that the oppressor is 10... Accommodate the kid in ways other than trying to get her to like you by paying all of her expenses/making her a room in a house that isn't directly hers and instead make sure the dad helps her out and stay as far away as required. And counseling

Obviously you are a step child mowmow. If you were here you'd be different. She loved me and wanted to live with us until we discussed a baby. Her father made the ultimate decision and said that he still wanted a baby. She's getting back at us.

obviously threatening people is wrong, but honestly can't blame the little girl...have step parents kinda sucks. what kid would want their dad to have a baby with someone they probably don't like?

I'd talk to your husband about this.

That's crazy. She should talk to a counselor.
