essay 2

In many of the modern movies, the relationships with the stepparents and the kids tend to be quite good for many reasons. For instance, children do not sometimes feel comfortable around their parents, so they turn to their stepparents for help. Usually, the stepparents spoil their children because they know that they need that little extra niceness from their older ones and they always know what they want.
Firstly, on the fact that children do not sometimes feel comfortable around their parents but they know that their stepparents or grandparents will always be there for them because they know that they are always there for them no matter what the circumstances may be. In addition to this, the grandparents or stepparents can consider their grandchildren basically their own because their children had a baby and that basically makes it theirs, if you see where I am coming from.
Secondly, yes I do have some experience with stepparents, I have a stepdad that I can basically call my dad. He has always been there for me when we needed help. He was the one who was there to take care of my dad when he was sick because nobody else would. I think that stepparents can be the best thing in the world other than your real parents, because they basically are your parents, they just don't get to be called "dad" or "mom."
Lastly, the stepparents or grandparents, are the ones who always spoil and cherish their little children because they are all usually old and they have nothing really left to spend their money on so they decide to spend it on their grandchildren so they at least know that they got something good if they didn't from their parents already. It just gives them a better feeling knowing that at least they get taken care of by somebody.
In conclusion, stepparents are good to have, but in some cases they can be the worst. I have a friend who has a stepdad who treats him like crap and thats just not right, but the kid has to live with it everyday. But, thats not to say that they are all like that, I'm saying that they are a good thing to have because they are always there for you.
