Do you mean "authority" on your children or hers? If you mean on yours, that doesn't change just because you are divorced from their mother. But if you mean stepchildren, then that depends on how much authority their mother chooses to allow you to have.

You have to understand that many people are reluctant to let a non-parent discipline their children. Also, since you and she may have completely different views on child rearing and discipline, there will be some things you and your new wife need to discuss and come to an agreement on.

But you DO have the right to be treated with respect by your stepchildren, even if she does not see it that way. It may be up to you though, to have a discussion with your wife and her children and tell them you refuse to be treated in a disrespectful manner. Just keep in mind that the children deserve respect, too.

If the children live with you and your husband, you are one of two adults in the household and you have a responsibility toward and and all children living with you. The extent of authority, and thus responsibility, that you have over your husband's children from a previous marriage will be modified by the legal, custodial arrangements your husband and his former wife may have as part of their divorce decree. But as they are in your household you will have some responsibility toward them.


Why didn't god let wives divorce abusive husbands according to the Torah?

There is no prohibition against divorce in the Torah. Although the husband has to initiate divorce according to Jewish law, in cases of abuse, the husband can be forced to do so.
