Mr. Lam Minh Phuc is a Literature lecturer and tea room MC. Together with his wife Kim Huyen, they have a small family with two daughters: the eldest daughter is 18 years old (Mr. Phuc's daughter) and the youngest daughter is 13 years old (Ms. Huyen's daughter).
However, the difference in mentality and circumstances has created an invisible gap between the members.
Minh Phuc's eldest daughter does not accept Kim Huyen as her stepmother, only calling her "aunt" instead of "mother".This makes it difficult for him to build a close relationship between his wife and daughter.
Minh Phuc shared about the difficulty in his stepdaughter not easily opening up to Kim Huyen."She has a clear point of view, all her love is only for her mother", he said.
As for Kim Huyen's daughter, the relationship between the children also became cold when the youngest gradually realized that her mother loved her and her father also spoiled her.
Conflicts between the children made the family atmosphere tense and unfriendly.“The youngest also started to get annoyed with her, and from then on the relationship between the two sisters was not close,” he shared.
Kim Huyen also faced opposition from her mother-in-law, who was concerned about the harmony between the two because of the age gap and her personality of not expressing her emotions.
However, over time, Kim Huyen’s perseverance made Phuc’s mother gradually accept her.
The relationship with her mother-in-law also gradually had positive changes.Although the little girl was not yet used to the new family routine, she often entered her grandmother’s room without knocking, making her feel uncomfortable.
However, she still loves her grandchild.This shows that family affection is being built more gently.
However, the relationship with Minh Phuc's eldest daughter becomes more and more tense when she still does not acknowledge Kim Huyen.She said that she really hates Kim Huyen because she always defends her stepchild without acknowledging her feelings.
After a while of talking, Minh Phuc understood the underlying cause of this distance, and from there, he helped the members understand each other better.
Minh Phuc said that recently on his birthday, both his eldest daughter and youngest daughter saved money together to buy a cake and congratulate him.
This action made him extremely emotional, because it was not only a gift to show affection, but also a sign that the babies gradually opened their hearts, changing their views on the relationship in the family.
Now, I just want Phuc to spend more time for me and my children."
