SS apparently doesn't have to answer when I speak to him

I ask SS9 a question and he just looked at me & then said dad can u come play xbox. DH said no not right now. I ask SS question again .. He looks at me & the. Asks DH to come play xbox again.. DH says when he gets done doing whatever he was doing ... I ask SS again and he walks off .. I says come in here I'm talking to u.. He tells NO! And walks off .. Then there's a fight between kids .. So when they all come running down the hall to tattle on each other.. I said u know it's rude when someone is talking to u to walk away and tell them no like u did.. So DH answers the question I had asked SS and I said well that's great except I asked him and all he could do was look at me smug and walk away ... So them DH tells ss he's not to good to talk to any one in our house and he needs to answer when spoke to..

I know it's not just a step kid thing but good lord it's annoying

Unless your H corrects this

Unless your H corrects this behavior in some way, then it will continue.

As RipleyV2 said....consequences for the disrespectful treatment of you?? By not punishing your SS, your H just gave him the green light to continue this treatment.

Yeah I don't understand how

Yeah I don't understand how your DH could be close enough to hear and respond to SS about the Xbox but not immediately engage SS for ignoring you after you repeatedly asked him a question. He should have corrected him immediately for it to be effective.

He has improved on the

He has improved on the discipline area (I know it doesn't seen like it by this). DH for years has been Disney dad and even made comments about it's not good to piss them off every day bc they will want to go live with BM every day bc she has no rules at all and they are allowed to miss school with her. But this past summer there was a huge blow up between me and DH and I flat out told him I was not apart of his family while the SKs were around and he was the only one that could change that. I told him that it was wrong of him to expect me to spend my money on them but the second I call them down I'm out if line so if that were going to be the case regarding them he could provide all for them and I wouldn't help. Told him I would not speak to them, help them, and when he had to work on days he has them he could find a baby sitter bc I would not be keeping them. After that he does stand up for me but there are days when he just sits there but eventually he steps it up
