Ever since I moved in with my partner 5 years ago, my stepson has been a difficult one to deal with. He is rude and manipulative with alcohol and drug problems. He has no respect for me from day one and calls me a gold digger while my partner is hardly a rich man and owns an old house we live in. Early this year, my partner told him to leave due to his escalating alcohol issues. He is now 23 years with a job. At the time, he became aggressive and verbally abusive. In the end, I called the police.  He was staying out from home for a little while, however, he comes back as his job has been unstable. I demanded my partner to get his son out of the house as soon as possible. I have had enough of his bad behaviours. My partner is a too laid back father and doesn't take action until the situation is bad. He didn't want to kick his son out as he didn't want to see his son on the street, especially the current climate. I told him that as long as he stays home, he will never grow up. He has been going through an abuser's cycle for a long time. He stays polite and agreeable while he is trying to get what he wants / needs. Once he gets what he wanted/needed, he shows his true colour again. At the moment, he is still around. I hate having him around and I want nothing to do with him. I really want to see him leave the house for good.
