It all depends on the circumstances though Duke. Some girls get lucky and have a good relationship with their Dad and stepDad.....while a whole bunch of girls have neither.

Chloe has friends who have the step Dads from h*ll. I can't imagine where these girls would pick up a good sense of 'male relationship' from that. Not having a good relationship or a lengthy absentee situation from a real Dad is equally as bad.

I think when the 'family unit' falls apart....we can make the most out of it and the kids will be okay. But, as Vautrin said, it's not the same......
