My girlfriend and I have 2 young children each from our previous relationships - making 2 boys and 2 girls. We want to move forward and all live together but my DP is worried about how all the children act. While I believe I treat all 4 children equally, my DP says I treat my daughter more like an adult and a little bit differently (she's 7 btw) - which seems to cause squabbles when all 4 children play. My DD is quite bossy and can often be a bit pushy with the other children - but she is lovely and sweet. Issue we have is my DP finds all 4 kids together at times stressful and also while I acknowledge that my DD is a handful and high maintenance, I don't think she's always to blame, but she is often the one to react. How can we get all children together under the same rules etc but also stop the squabbling between my DP and I?
