I Tried It All

Yes I contacted CPS. They took statements from me and my 2 children. They contacted my husband by phone, which he did not answer, asking him to contact them. This was over a month ago. I have called the police. I was told they cannot do anything. My husbands brother is the chief of police in a nearby city. Just the mention of our last name gets everything swept under the rug. I know that nothing I do will stop this. I will be washing my hands clean of this family and never associating me to their sick last name.

I'm To Blame Again

So SS comes out of his room and pot smell is all too obvious and he is looking for the keys to my car. I instantly confront my husband on the matter and he again explodes with anger at me. He says his son is not hurting anybody and to stay out of it. I refused explaining that not only is he hurting himself but also members of the family who have to deal with it. I told him he is the worst parent I know by letting this problem continue. He comes back to say that I am the problem by not keeping my mouth shut. Again saying he's not hurting anybody. This kid is 16.

I do appreciate everyones feedback on my situation. I know its time to move on, its just gonna take time as its not as easy as it sounds. I gave up everything I had to help our family financially, even gave up employment to raise all our children. Someone said dont let SS drive my car. Well its in my husbands name and he lets him drive it whenever he wants. Its hard living with others that have no respect or a care in the world for me. I never wanted to be labeled as the "bad stepmom" so I have always treated my SC as if they were my own. Not anymore. I'm too tired.

I have been with my husband for 6 years now and have taken care if his boys now ages 14 and 16 from day one. My husband works 12 hour days all week and has no involvement in his boys lives. Over the past year my 16 yr old stepson has been smoking pot in our house and has no regard for others including my 13 yr old daughter and 17 yr old son who also live with us. When I tell my husband about it he tells me not to bother him at work with our problems.
