No "steps" in my family.

I do I do !! I have a Stepdad whom I live with right now and a stepmom and stepbrother back home in Chicago.

No steps for me!

No steps here but Trav has a stepmom, stepdad, and 2 stepbrothers and I think two stepsisters(from the stepdad) he has never met because they don't keep in much contact with their dad

I'm confused! Does this mean that after your parents split up, your Mom remarried, then your Dad married the step-Dad's ex-wife!?!

I am remarried, so dh is technically the stepfather to my two kids from my first marriage. But to me, stepson, or half brother sound wrong for family members, so I don't really consider it step or half. But it is.

The man that I refer to as my "dad" is really my stepfather. I also have a stepmother (the proverbial wicked one) and three stepsisters.

I've been a stepmother and stepgrandmother. Russ had three grown kids (two older than I) and a raft of grandkids.

No steps in my family, just stepped on.

My stepmom and stepdad used to be married to each other, yes.
A giant case of wife swapping if you will.
Except, my dad and mom were not divorced when my dad remarried, he commited bigamy.
My mom and step dad though, lived together for 20 years before they got married.

I have looooads of steps! Stepdad, stepsister, stepbrother and then married to my Dad I have a step Mum and a half brother and sister.

None here.

None here either!

We have lots of steps in our families.

I have 1 real bro, 1 real sis, 1 step bro, 1 step sis, 1 half bro, and now with 2nd step mom I have more steps though I've never met them!

Hubby has 1 half sis, about 8 step siblings and both a step mom and dad!

I do now.... and it's not that good a thing I'm afraid. I'm not comfortable with it. I'm just glad I don't have to be with them....

Let's see...I have a step dad, who brought along 2 step-brothers and 2 step-sisters for me. And my Dad divorced my step-mother my senior year of HS and I had 2 more step-brothers from their marriage. Now my aunt's husband has me confued. I grew up with her first husband as my Uncle. Then they divorced and she re-married a man who I'm not so crazy about. I'm not so sure if I should call him my step-uncle or not, but that's what he feels like. So I just call him by his given name! DH's parents also divorced so he has a step-father and three step-brothers plus their wives and children. His dad is currently single.

Both sets of my Grandparents are still living. (Praise God! I love them all so much!) Yesterday was my mother's parent's 61st anniversary! And in about 10 days will be my dad's parent's 61st anniversary! I think that is just the most awesome thing!

DH's mom had a step-father who was the only dad she ever knew (her dad was killed in WWII) and older step siblings. I'm not sure how many.

Well my dads mum was married twice Susie so i guess that means i had a step-grandad,
tho sadly i never met any of them as they died before i was born
