You are a step mom and your step kids have moved away, but they still live at home so you have to make sure they have a room to where they can call you by their name. So you have to figure out how to get them to talk to you by calling your name repeatedly. It is annoying, but it's not like they will stop calling you or text you if you don't help. I have found that naming the children after me and my husband helps me get more in touch with them and they feel closer to their mother because she is named after me and her husband.
