New 38-year-old stepmother demands 26-year-old "stepdaughter" give her and her 7 and 6-year-old halfsisters the jewels she inherited from her mother: 'She said all of her kids [should] get something of my mom's stuff'

One of the strangest things that happens when someone passes away is the emergence of all the people who claim some significant connection to them, even though you've never met them or heard them mentioned once in your entire life. Sometimes these people want money, but it's way more common that they're just there to leech off the emotional turmoil. It's like by feigning a connection that was never there, they can somehow feel some sort of significance in their own life. 

It's like Cinderella, except Cinderella is an adult, and the evil stepmother is a gold-digging trophy wife in her late 30s and only 12 years older than Cinderella herself. Really, this doesn't make her much of a stepmother at all, and the two women are, unfortunately, more peers than parent and child. As a commenter keenly pointed out, if the new wife wants jewels of her own and to be treated as a member of the family then it makes the most sense for the father to buy her some new jewels of her own, she has no connection to the 26-year-old's mother at all and no entitlement to any of her things at all.

Quite frankly, it's good that her father had the foresight to protect the jewelry from his future self before some new woman put his jewels in a vice grip.
