I'm a lucky step parent then... i have disciplined my 2 step sons from practically day 1 and they have nothing but respect for me. They know where they stand in our house and they know that our rules are to be respected.
Step parents who are a long term fixture, expecally when you have children with their dad should be allowed to discipline them, what is that going to show to your own child together if you tell your child off and not their half siblings?
As hard as it is for children with broken families, the children need to know where they stand and what is expected of them in order for them to behave in a way that is appropriate, your house, your rules, regardless if they are different to their mums house! You need your OH to stand by you and for you both to agree on what the rules and and both stick to them, they will soon get the message. xx
