    LW is like the evil stepmother from central casting!

    I was a step-daughter and my stepfather hated me, thought I was stupid, ugly, and lazy. It's a horrible way to grow up and the wounds never really heal. I feel terrible for this kid, it sounds like no one loves her except the nanny. Her father ignores her, her mother is insane, and her potential step-mother is a card carrying narcicisstic bitch. Cary's advice is dead on, this woman needs to just go away.
