Your husband is being a total jerk here. If you intend to remarry someone with kids, you should be prepared to love their kids as your own too. This is why people said being a step parent is hard.
I totally understand if he loves his own children more, it’s natural but to make such remarks to a child is unnecessary and inappropriate. They are still growing and if someone keeps putting them down, what will this child grow into?
Understand that you’re probably being sandwiched right now. Take a break, explain to your child, then talk to your husband again. If he don’t wanna be a dad to your child nor have a relationship with them, then at least tell him to be nice like how he would to a complete stranger. And tbh, kids are not that fragile and crying doesn’t mean the child definitely is the one being bullied. Your husband needs to stop being so openly biased.
