I'm super overwhelmed right now to say the least. I'll type more later when I can get my thoughts together but to make a long story short, my stepmother is pregnant.

My parents split a few years back and my Dad remarried a few months ago.

He's 54, she's like 30 something.

I turn 25 this year....
:wan:

It might not be strange to some of you that there's such a large age gap, but growing up in a somewhat traditional Vietnamese family this is completely foreign to me.

Are you close with him at all? Are you half brothers or full?

My sister and I are only 6 years apart.

My mother and her only sister, are 21 years apart.

Between all 4 of my kids, there are only 4 1/2 years.

Full brothers, and yeah we are pretty close. I was never really too much of a pest to him because by the time I was an annoying little asshole he was already out of the house. It's always been a pretty mature relationship as far as I can remember. None of the fighting that seems to go on between siblings that only have a few years between them. Plus, he has an awesome house near the beach which I get to house sit this weekend.

:keke:

My other brother is 10 years older than me, so it's kind of the same story but he lived at home a lot longer.

My sister is 6 years older than my brother and I.
My mom is 8 years older than her younger brother and was 8 younger than her older, for a 16 year bridge between her brothers.
I do not know ANYONE with a gap larger than that

My older brother and I are 19 years apart I'm 20 and he's 39 with a 7y/o kid. He says my parents were so happy to get him out of the house that I ended up happening 9 months after his graduation. We are pretty close but then again he wasn't there for the usual annoying little brother stuff.

Now if you will excuse me I'm going to go shoot myself in the face for thinking about my own conception.

My girlfriend is 20, and her oldest brother is 39. Her youngest brother is 34 (I think), and really they seem more like uncles than brothers. They all have 4-7 year old kids.

wow that is pretty odd, i never met my pops new wife *he lives out of state* but he flew to the Philippines and brung some chick back, i can imagine shes probably young too lol.

3 years and some months between my older brother and I.

7 years and some months between my younger brother and I.

Lots of fighting between the older bro and myself.

Barely any with the little bro.

I've always thought of having kids fairly close together. Maybe 2-3 years between each one.(We only want 2 kids minimum. 3 kids max.)

Big gaps between kids never happened in all of my family.

Dad's parents had 14 kids.

Mom's parents had 9 kids.

All born about a year apart.

Haha.

She's your step mom your real mom went missing right after you were born? LOL


My Oldest sister is around 11 years older than me and my brother is 9 years. it goes down every couple of years till it gets to me. Youngest of 5.

Aya's Mother is exactly 8 years older than me. Go figure that shit out. Oh and Aya is 32.

Close, if she was missing though she would still age.

Of course if she went missing then you would not know her age. On top of that, A step Mom could come into the picture at some point that was really young aka 20 years junior your father.

Or .......
I would hate to say your real Mom might have died . R.I.P. if that be the case.


It does sound like a step Mom situation.

Second one is correct. I never met her though, happened during my birth.

When I tell people that I am older than my mom, most just sit there and be like huh?

and I walk away and enjoy watching them trying to figure it out. lol

my oldest brother is 10 years older then me, he lived with us till he was 21 and he was hardly there(parties and going out just like everyone at that age;)). He was a good older brother, he always made sure we had money or activities to do. Now that he is older hes still the same but wiser. I can go to him for any advice i need.
I have a niece that is more like my little sister shes 17 and im 25 and we get along real well, I always took care of her and played with her, we have homevideos showing me looking out for her, instead of playing on my own. i was more like an older brother to her than an uncle.

Thanks everyone.

So to give everyone a bit more background I'm the oldest of three.

My brother is turning 22, my sister is turning 21. It's just been us three for the past 21 years and while we're not as close as most siblings, we all get along pretty well.

It's just strange to think that there's going to be a 4th sibling. Even though it's only going to be a half sibling I guess I already feel like I'm going to treat him/her like a full sibling.

On a funny sidenote I didn't think this marriage was going to last. I don't talk to my pops that often but he called me to tell me that he was getting married. Then I found out it was mainly to help my stepmom get her greencard. :roll eyes:

But I guess it turns out, they really like eachother afterall. :/

And now she's gone and got herself knocked up....

I dunno if my dad is going to be capable of raising this child the way it needs to be raised. I mean he's going to be 70 by the time this child turns 15!!! :(

Damn 70 by the time his 15 thats where you younger guys in your family come in to help

I have a step bro that is 19 I am 22 and my step sis is 25 nothing crazy here

Yeah, we're probably going to be helping out a lot.

Btw your avatar is awesome. I just adopted some kittens a few months ago and one of the first things they did when they discovered TP was unravel the whole damn roll. Haha!

So your dad is 55. Wow that's getting up there, for kids but beyond the realm, but hey these days?

A lot of men who are 40 look and are in the physical shape of a 30 year old. Seriously the question should be is your Dad healthy enough. Shit my Dad is 82 and most people think the guy is around 72.

That's the real question and after all, if its a boy you can kinda step in for Dad if needed to give the guy guidance. After all, you will be his older brother, if only half.

Me and my brother are only a year apart (he is younger) and we would fight alot as kids but we are pretty neutral now. In my close family I have an uncle thats 40 and a cousin thats 33.

Oh man, I hate when people do that.

Is your dad in on this, and alright with it?

This is how it works most of the time.
She marries a US citizen so she can get a green card/citizenship. Then she has a child as soon as possible, so the kid can be a true US citizen, thus making it even harder for the government to kick her out if it ever comes down to anything. Then she gets a divorce as soon as she is legally allowed to, and starts collecting child support.

That's kinda what I was thinking too, although I really hope this isn't the case. It's not like my dad has any money worth mentioning though thats for sure.

So if she thinks she's pulling a fast one, then she needs to think again. You can't receive checks for child support when the dad has no monies.

I didn't know you had a sister Daniel...

WASSUP!

And Dave, between people trying to keep themselves in better health and viagra, people are having kids at an older age. Which can be a good thing being as how they are more likely to be financially stable and set in life.

I rather older people having kids than kids having kids.

I do agree Mel I would rather see people having kids in their late twenties to early 30's than teens and early 20's. Most people are not really grown up until they are in their late twenties. Sorry guys just seen it and been there. Its the way it is.

If I had a dime for everything I thought I knew in my twenties only to learn better of in my 30's ? I would have a small fortune.
