Questions I Hate Answering...

One thing that many people don't know about me is that I come from a "blended" family, meaning my parents are divorced, remarried, and have added more children to the family. Although I love my entire family very much, even as large as it is (4 sisters, 3 brothers), and I mostly do enjoy explaining to other people about how everything works. However I always get those random and cliche questions about step-siblings and step-parents, "Is your step-mom nice?" "Do your parents still hate each other?" "Do you like you step-siblings?" These questions are the most annoying questions to answer, not because of the questions themselves, but because of my answer following them. My parents were separated and divorced by the time I turned one, therefore I only know how to live a life where every other weekend and once during the week I am part of my Dads family, while every other day I live with my Mom and Step-dad. The reason these questions are so difficult to answer is because no one will understand that I call both my Step-father and my biological father "Dad", that my "step" siblings and I treat each other as though we were blood, and my Step-mom and I are the best of friends. People see "broken" families on TV or have seen real life situations that didn't turn out so perfect, which is where these questions come from, and after I answer them the best I can, and make the most sense of what I am trying to explain, I, nine times out of ten get to sit back and watch the confused look on their face when they try to process my family's situation.
