My husband is harder on my 2 girls then he is on his 3 kids. What do I do?

Question: We recently got custody of my husbands 3 kids, it seems like they get away with everything and any chance he gets he will discipline my girls, hard. He says he is not doing it on purpose but I don't know what to believe anymore. It's not the first time we have had his kids so they know the rules. BTW... My girls are 4 &7 and his are 5,7&9. Am I over reacting? Help!!! He has 2 boys and 1 girl. they moved into our house, then his kids went to thier mothers, moved 3 times in 1 year and now we have them again. I did tell him we needed to sit and write down some rules but all he had to say was "what ever you decide is what I will do"

Answer: maybe your kids need to follow directions more than his. if you moved into his house, it's his rules too. his kids do what they are used to doing, yours are not. you and he need to get together and come up with family rules you and he are comfortable on. my wife and i have kids from other marriages. we set the rules and do not let the kids divide us. we are in charge together. what one tells the kids to do the other one backs them up. i don't care why my wife tells our son not to do something, the fact is he was told not to do it by his mother and i make him mind her. if he doesn't like it then he needs to get her to change her mind because i won't do it for him.
