A lot of women have felt the way that you do. One thing that you have to remember is that this child existed before you came along. Your husband is not going to go on a family holiday with the child and his/her mother without you and your children, so maybe he just wants the child to be a part of his new family. You could suggest to your husband that maybe the big holidays you all go together and then you have a holiday where it's just you and your children together and see how he feels about that. Then again you can look at it on a positive note, since the children are brothers and sister even if only half brother and sister, the holiday can be a way for them to get to know each other outside the home setting. See it as you doing something positive for them, that way it takes the feeling off you. You no longer feel selfish but selfless as it's no longer about you but them.
2. My daughter from my first marriage is now 13. I am re-married and my new wife and daughter do not seem to get along. My daughter feels that my wife is always picking on her. What can I do?
Talk to your wife and find out what seems to be the problem. Then talk to your daughter and find out what she feels is the problem. Try to get them to give an example or examples of some of the incidents, just to ensure you understand what they are explaining. Based on what they have both said you should be able to pin point what the problem/s are.
What looks like a problem to one person can actually be something that is easily resolved when you have the right information. This could just be a case of your wife having your daughters' best interests at heart.
