Wow - SS30 threatens to block my cell number!
Oldest SS30 sent me this text: "If you won't comply to my request, my recourse will likely be to block your number in the future. Need I remind you that contacting me is a privilege, not a right. If you choose to abuse that privilege to my detriment despite my very reasonable request, I will take appropriate action". His request was to not text him before 9:00am. This text came to me after sending SS30 4 different unanswered texts over a weeks time - the first being at 10:53am, inviting him to a family BBQ for June 16th Father's Day, asking if he could make it that day.
It's a bit shocking that a 30 year old man (single, no girlfriend since age 16) would threaten their stepmom with blocking the cell number, because he cannot manage to put his cell phone on do-not-disturb if he is sleeping. He told his father I disrespected his sleep schedule. Hmmm, like I know what that is! He previously told his father that he did not call him back because his phone is on silent and he doesn't always get the messages...what a crock of balony that is. He just doesn't want to talk to his dad. Only time he is around is if he is "getting" something, a birthday present, or Christmas presents. Does not get his father birthday or Father's Day cards or gifts. He surely expects presents from his father though, it's always a 1 way relationship with this SS30, he takes, never gives.
Are we now to consider sending text messages to our skids a "privilege"? Not a right? This felt to me like getting a middle finger from him.
I am just not sure how to respond to his text. DH texted SS30 to apologize to me, but he never would. I feel like texting him back to get counseling...thoughts?
DH asked SS30 recently to help spread some mulch in our small yard, he asked how much would he get paid. So, I said I don't want his help if that's all he cares about. DH father at age 84 came over and helped/volunteered for free! So we took him out to a very nice dinner to thank him!

"Lol, ok. I guess since I don't have the privilege to text you, you don't have the privilege of enjoying family perks. Consider your block request accepted!"
Then just don't reply . Don't block, but don't reply.

"DONE" What a arrogant jackass, you should tell you DH, no more SKid communications, no more invites. Let the little turd, live his life as a self entitled ass.
Just block him and decide
Just block him and decide that he is DEAD to you. He does not need to exist in your life.
The event that made me remove SS34 from my life was his moving into our home (with no permission) while we were on a 2 week vacation. He and his GF ransacked out home and helped themselves to whatever they wanted of MY possessions. No apology EVER - they both told me that I needed to "get over it".
But the ultimate reason that he will NEVER be allowed back in my life is that he is a loser/user. He only wants to take. Never to give. Over the years he had "helped" with several things - but we always ended up paying him more than what a professional would have charged. I still remember the time he refused to keep our dog for a night - not that I would have allowed than anyway.
Yes!!!
*lol**
please!!! Please!!! ROLF!!! Yes!!! Don’t let the block hit you in the A$$!!
I can’t stop laughing....sorry... not sorry...
Good Christ he sounds more
Good Christ he sounds more high maintenance than a Kardashian. Ghost him!
Wow he sounds psycho.
Wow he sounds psycho.
I'm petty so I would wait until the next day at 7am and reply "Ok". *biggrin*

(((Applauding while LOL)))
Can't you program a text to
Can't you program a text to be sent at a given time? If so, send that one at 3 am ...
I noticed something with these cod and skids...
The way they message their parents or refer to stepparents is not the way kids normally talk to their parents. That language is sooooo formal...
ss is messaging like a real twat dumbass... thats not how you message a parent or stepparent. Its like he’s messaging in a court case against a third party
my skids message their dad like this too
I agree with most everyone
I agree with most everyone else here.
Don’t respond. Block him. Don’t ever discuss texting with him in-person. Don’t remind him of holidays such as Father’s Day ever again.
He sounds like a bonafide twatwaffle. Ewww.
"If you won't comply to my
"If you won't comply to my request, my recourse will likely be to block your number in the future.
This is absolutely hilarious......was that comment suppose to be a threat?!? He can block you all he wants, works well for you so you don't have to be in contact with his "privileged" @ss. He did you a favor!
I see both sides....
Ok,,,if he has requested you to stop texting him early AND you keep doing it,,,shame on you.
To be fair HE too should shut off his darn phone. I could never understand why anyone keeps their phone on when they dont want notices.
I would call him and say 'I am sorry, I wont text again. How about when something comes up I will call you around 7pm IF that is not ok, please give me a time that will work for you".
*his comments were...girly in my opinion"
She has no need to call or
She has no need to call or text him, just ask his Father to pass along any info.
hmmm
This is how I address all invitations to my ssons who are really sweet but are lacking in etiquette. " If I do not hear from you by xxxxx we will assume that you will not bwe coming. Thank you."
As for your SS I would repond "OK, your privileges are revoked. Please deal in future with any requests, needs, wants, advice requests through your paternal parent. The privilege of texting each other is hereby revoked until further notice or hell freezes over, whichever comes first."
