I need some advice on just letting go of resentment and general unhappiness. My SS10 has since I have known him always been a self centered spoiled brat. I just recently stopped involving myself in his life. Switched weekends that i had my BD and on the weekends he coems over i go to work or stay holed up in my room. According to my DH he is "completely changed" and he would like for me to give him another chance. I just do not want to take anymore of this kids crap. And his BM and my DH always think that him doing the tiniest thing is the greatest thing in the world.

I'm not his biggest fan but Military School??

So its been maybe a month since SS pissed me off to the point that i decided i was no longer doing nice things for him, especially since DH and BM don't do anything to correct his behavior. well, DH tells me that he just had a talk with BM and she told him that she is sick of SS and does not want to be around him or spend time with him, take him out because he embarrases her with his disrespectfulness,etc. etc.... which is exactly the way i feel.

What the heck!

Well, it has been 3 years since we have tried to blend this family and SS10 has no intention of ever being respectful or helpful. It is not like I ask anything of this child. Maybe very basic things like, wash your hands after the restroom, which I do not understand why in the world you wouldn't want to wash your hands!! It is just ridiculous that I have to tell him to wash his hands everytime he comes out of the restroom.

It's that time again

The weekend with the SS10 is drawing near. It is always emotionally charged. SS has serious issues in listening and responsablity. one year he "lost" his jacket 8 times. BM bought him a new jacket each time of course, but SS10 doesn't care because he is super spoiled. when he comes over and i ask him to do chores, nothing big, simple stuff like clean his room, pick up dishes, vacuum, put away his things, all stuff i have my BD5 do.
