Her stepson wouldn’t stop posting unflattering photos of her online, and things got physical when she wrested his phone away.
I have a 14-year-old stepson, “Paul.” Paul’s dad and I have been married for eight years. Paul stays with us every other week, and I feel like we have a pretty good relationship.
My husband made Paul apologize to me. The apology was along the lines of, “I’m sorry you look so bad in every picture I take.” And he didn’t stop. Paul went to his mom’s and refuses to come back here. His mom sent me nasty texts and threatened to sue me for the replacement cost of the phone. My husband is angry at me for not just “being an adult and letting it go” and demanding I apologize to Paul for breaking his phone. Lost in all of this is the fact that my stepson assaulted me and no one has addressed his behavior.I am sick of all of them, and I really don’t know what to do.
