WEDNESDAY MARTIN – Stepmonster

    We all remember the wicked step mothers depicted in the fairy tales, Snow White and Hansel and Gretel. In fact the words wicked and step mother tend to go hand in hand not just in fiction but in real life. But the reality of being a step mother is much more complicated.
