Question Details Asked By Asked On
step-parent etiquette shafebr 08/13/03
    My wife has a 65 yr. old father who just got re-married to a 60 yr. old woman who is unknown to my wife (escept for meeting her at the wedding). The wife wants to be known as "grandma" to the kids but my wife is uncomfortable with it. My questions are:

    1)is it okay for my wife to refer to her dad's wife by her first name (Pat)with the kids, especially in her presence ( their biological grandma is still alive and involved with the kids)?

    2) is it okay when introducing Pat to others to refer to her as "my father's wife Pat" rather than "my stepmother". My wife if 40 years old and will have little if any relationship with her.


    Thanks!
