    But, since he's 20...there is absolutely nothing dad or anyone else can do about it. They can't get social services involved, so really, it's all up to you and his mom to lay out the rules and make sure he abides by them. Your wife may feel bad about it, I don't know. But allowing him to do this and act this way isn't doing him any favors. Truly. Sorry you're dealing with an overgrown 2 year old though. Mine has acted like that every once in a while, it's not fun, but we broke him of that pretty quick.

    I actually agree with you...so don't think I am taking this personally. She does side with me for the most part but she views it more as "its 3 months" instead of like everyone else being like oh god no....

    Him and his dad are the same person, they are adults that are really children, anytime the kid fucks up, he's bailed out by dad and grandpa, I feel like I can't overcome that you know.

    for real though 20 year olds are dicks. I'm sure we all were when were 20 to some extent. And I've never had a stepmom, but I imagine they suck too.

    It's a hard situation all the way around no matter what. If the kid is constantly bailed out and given his way he will always be that way, which I'm sure the damage has already been done. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. All I can tell you is to lay down the rules, hide or do't by junk food, then when dad says something tell him "Thank you for your advice. I will take that into consideration when I am running my household." Honestly though since the kid is 20 there is absolutely no reason at all to give a shit about what dad says or even listen to him if he's going to condone his kid being a shit head to you and his mother.

    The key is to leave the food bowl out for 20 minutes- and trust me here- you then pick it up and pretend to eat it all and walk away. Sure, they'll hold out for a few meals before they get really desperate, but eventually, they'll just sullenly eat it because they're hungry and youv'e pulled the power move of repeatedly eating their food while they sulk.

    Ok, this might be a cat/dog thing, but I'm pretty sure this could be adapted for a human male.

    I would be a bomb stepmom if I was allowed to be. Kids love the shit out of me, and I don't know why.

    Step-mom trade? I'll take you and your stepkids can have my stepmom! She's 35 and hates kids! Good luck to them!

    This trade is available to everyone.

    I would just like a mother figure of an approp age who doesn't hate the existence of her husband's children cause it cramps her partying/child free life.
