[QUOTE="steve2389, post: 704361, member: 21138"] Thanks everyone for the input for an embarrassing and potentially dangerous situation for me and my family. My wife and I sat down with Emily and discussed what is appropriate and what is not relative to contacting another person. She said she understood but it wasn't very convincing, not to me anyway, but her mom believed her. I'm going to start document everything, and this may sound crazy but I'm considering setting up some hidden camera's in the house. My wife also told her that she can stay up until 10:30 (10PM was her old bedtime). I'm not sure that was the greatest idea; it almost seems like giving in to me, like Emily accomplished something by throwing me down, but we'll see how it goes. I also told a friend of mine who is a psychiatrist, and she told me a lot of what I have heard on here already (nice job folks!), especially to be very careful and not to dismiss this lightly, which is very tempting to do, ya know, like close your eyes and hope it all goes away kind of thing. I also thought it might be a good idea to do an activity with Emily and my wife, something that Emily really enjoys, so I suggested working out with them, as they routinely workout together in our basement. Big mistake, as this confirmed how much stronger she is than me. Evidently a 60lb bench press isn't very good for a man, especially when your step daughter can do almost three times that. Yeesh, great for the ego. She likes basketball too so maybe we'll try a basketball game next time. Anyway, I'll let you know how things go, and thanks again for the support. Steve [/QUOTE]
