Hey everyone! I hope everyone is doing well.

So my question is ; Is it okay to feel a different/more love towards your bio child/ren compared to your step-child/ren as long as you treat them both equally? I mean you can't control how you feel, but you can definitely control how you act, Right?

Say your partner had a child and you accepted and love that child but when you had your own child you feel like you just can't love anyone as much as your own but you never treat them differently, you take care of both, you encourage both, spoil both, you are there for both, etc, etc?

I hope you understand what I'm trying to say and respond respectfully. I just want your opinions. I'm sure everyone isn't the same.
