Dealing with teenage step kids?

[snake dr]

And you know damn well that you will be unblocking them to see what they had to say about your ignorant ass.

I love how people comes in a thread and don't offer anything to the table but post silly pictures about trolling when they're the ones that are the true trolls.I just added some more to my ignore list.I love looking at profiles of these trolls and their friends with all the other trolls on the site...hahhahahhaa

OP feel free to PM me and I will offer anything I can to help!!

Wow... as far as the whole issue of step-dad and real dad having words due to laying hands... That almost made me chuckle. If the kid bowed up at me in my house, he WILL end up on his arse, and Dad can come over if he chooses and one of us might end up that way too. If the guy was any kind of father, the kid wouldn't be that way! You can't paint a picture with that wide of a brush, we aren't talking abuse here...

To the OP, you are on the way to being single if mom doesn't come to her senses and either be a PARENT or divest her home of this kid, whether it be tomorrow or you stick it out 3 years sadly. No time in life for that with a 17yr old who by all accounts is pretty much an adult now.

^^^This. My father always told me " you have til about the age of 13 to get their head and ass wired together" and once it hit that point, you just have to sit back and watch. If your wife doesn't get on board, you will end up with a divorce, and I make that prediction based on experience. Good luck, but this all has to start with her.

If he's that rebellious in 2 weeks, i'd say send him packing. He'll learn quick what it's like out there working, paying bills, that sort of thing. also, if he lived with me, he'd have to be going to college, about to join the military, working, something. This ain't no free roll.
