My step children, are doing poorly in school, lie to their father, do not bath clean up after themselves at all and due to them their mother has called CPS on us, the local Sherrif's department and we've had to go as far as threaten a restraining order against ex-wife due to her harrassment of me. My stepson texted me the other night over and over how much he hated me and his father. I showed his father and I was later blamed because the 12 yr old was having a bad day and I should have just left him alone! I'm at a loss....
