At A Loss in TOO Many Ways

Lucy's picture

Long story short:
My son's X-stepmother a non-participant in son's life (he
now 37) gave him a new car for Christmas. I now wait for the other shoe to drop so to speak. Son is upset that I am upset and not speaking to me. This has never happened before. AND at the same time it is announced that they after many years of trying are having a baby. And the step mummy? You guessed it. I am not a confrontational person and do not
know how to handle this, she told him not to tell me that she gave him the car.(Their little secret !) NOT.

I might be missing the long story but if your son felt fine with accepting the new car, why should you be so concerned he is 37, right? maybe she told him not to tell you for a reason, like she knew how you would react and as for the new baby that really is their business. This is coming from both a bio and step. Smile
