I am from a mixed family, we were thrust together when I was around the age of 12.
I am now the Father / Step Father in a mixed family. Several children involved of ages varying from 13 to 25.
Things are tough.
There are so many perspectives of what happened, and what is happening. Not everybody is happy all of the time, some are not happy most of the time.
It is touch to watch. It is tough to not be able to "fix" things.
It is tough to arrange things so everyone is happy, without the playing favorites thing cropping up.
I wish the OP the best of luck. Communicate openly with your parents (which includes step parents). Be respectful.
They may have a different perspective, allow them that, but explain yours.
Good luck.
