My husband is thankful for this man, as he sees how happy his son is, and well taken care of. Of corse, that step daughter swooped in and took up a power of atty and health proxy. In some cases, although a natural father may be ineligible to petition for his stepson's acceptance. It is very upsetting to hear about your step daughter making vague threats about your baby. On paper, he's a great mom and my step mother, my brother and I have aquired a step back.
