Something else I just though of. If mom wants a man to love her kids as HIS own, that mean he has EQUAL say in how the kids are brought up. He doesn’t just pay the bills and set a good example, he gets to impose his morals and values on the kid. Is mom willing to give him that power?
 
Who said that children are unworthy?

The fact is, except in rare instances, kids are going to love the man they have known as father/daddy. A virtuous step dad will love the children but will not usurp the place of the father.

Believe me, I love my step grandkids with all of my heart. I would give them a kidney or take a bullet for them. My son feels the same way about these, his step kids. My son also respects their father and defers to him.

A lot of people, as well as the hypothetical person who refuses to marry the OP’s sister. My grandfather, God rest his soul, told me that he thought that my stepdad was crazy to marry my mom because it involved taking on kids that weren’t his own. That mentality is still out there, and it was the subject of my post.

I don’t think my dad (stepdad, technically, but he’s more than earned the title “dad”), was at all crazy. He was the best father we could have had.
