Yes. I wouldn't use that C either. It sounds like she is going to continually tear you down. You're only recourse is to always stand tall. When you do that, everyone notices ... teachers, other parents, your kids.
No way should you ever accept OM as a co-equal. My mom went through a series of men after her divorce and they were nice enough. But I only had one dad.
This is a struggle we'll eventually see from another side. I think I'll probably remarry some day and it'll most likely be someone with kids. So at that point I'll be the OM and that'll be ... strange. You'll want to treat those kids as if they were your kids but without getting in between the relationship they have with their real father.
Life is just going to get more complicated.
