Being a part of a blended family isn’t always easy, especially when you’re a stepparent<\/a> trying to figure out what your role is going to look like for your spouse’s kids. Lines can often get blurry when it comes to figuring out when you need to step in to discipline the kids or if you even should if they don’t seem receptive to it. This is where a parenting style such as “nacho parenting<\/a>” can come into play. One individual took to Reddit for some advice when it comes to a snide comment from their spouse that’s in direct relation to their parenting — or lack thereof — and how they should even respond to a spouse who says they feel like a “single parent,” even after they’ve remarried.<\/p>
