SM has never liked that the kids call her by her first name. She feels like they should call her step mom or something more formal.

My kids dont really consider her their mom. The marriage is still new. She feels like they are going out of their way to be disrespectful. I dont see it like that at all. They are just doing what they feel comfortable. They also called my exs long term girlfriend before her by her first name and it wasnt an issue

She wants me to punish my kids also because they are not taking her or her rules seriously. I told her no thanks.

My ex is on her side but really just to keep the peace with her. I know he doesnt have a real issue with it.

I just cant imagine being so offended over something so small

This is a problem. Why should YOU punish the kids for not following HER rules? Either she needs to punish them herself or she needs to take it up with their dad. It has nothing to do with you.

I know that isnt the case.

She feels like kids calling adults by their first name is offensive. Idk if she is old fashioned or what. Step mom is less offensive in her mind I guess

She has tried punishing them but it isnt working because they dont care about the punishment
