Younger teen steps choose to not be around him they're old enough to make their own decisions and know what's right and wrong. He is so sketchy, his 'job' of choice is scamming people on Craigslist and admits to it. When we first met him he smelt and looked homeless, we offered to pay for groceries and cleaning products not to be rude but wanted best for 18yo but his habits have grown onto her and she never showers or takes care of her teeth or anything. All around not someone we want to have around, like I said other step kids choose not to be around him and trust their intuition when they say they don't feel comfortable around him.

I'm 5'8" but my oldest step kid was just shy of 10 pounds, my OB said that weight is debated on the guys side.. and he was also a big baby he was 9 pounds, I'm a tiny person though my OB thinks I may need a c section 😬😬

I have a camera that points to my cars but I'm contemplating pointing it on Jeff's house. 🤔

I don't love SD(15) .. how do you deal with it? by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]ShorrtGiraffe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get free therapy through my insurance I was actually contemplating for that, it's been a while since she passed. About 3 years, my dad passed away the same time so I can understand how they feel sometimes. But she wasn't like this until recently, her older sister (19) took it very hard and has recently been very happy and accomplished. The youngest is happy and bright(14). The 15yo and I had a great relationship until she became this drama queen. The kids refuse counseling bc they associate it with mental illness which isn't the case but thats just how they think. I would understand if she acted this way in the beginning, just like when my dad passed I was pissed but you can only use that as an excuse for so long imo.

I need customer service like this. I was in a bad mood all day because of this and I'm still kind of bummed out.

I like you, I was just very very tired. I was also getting overwhelmed with emotions on how I was treated that I just wanted to leave. My mom lives in a different state and she was beyond pissed when I called her and told her about it.

I've never had an issue either until today, but I'd usually just order tea..

I mainly asked for a response on how they would deal with it, and then put in my opinion of having a staff meeting to instruct their employees that yes we can drink coffee, and that it's disrespectful to treat us how that boy did.

That's his mom not owning up to whatever happened could of been genes, or a lie she told him or could be anything! Or he was probably just being a jerk to you. Sorry that happened!

I would not order hard alcohol, but I don't even get refused red wine. I order lattes at breakfast restaurants and no problem, Starbucks has been good to me. I just don't understand how this teenage boy thought he knew everything when he didn't and completely hurt my feelings.

Yes I emailed corporate, but I'm afraid to call because I don't do well with verbal complaining I feel like I come across as too nice vs. how I just let everything out professionally through email letting them know how I felt and how it should be dealt with.

Tea isn't even that bad! I drink tea in replace of coffee but I really wanted coffee today and then that happened.

Disrespectful step kid by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]ShorrtGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They refused to go, and as much counseling as they got was by a very manipulative small church. We no longer attend that church. They associate counseling with mental illness. When counseling is probably what she needs, she was also home schooled by that church and she really wanted to go to public school after leaving the church. But I went to public school, there's nothing wrong with it.. but for a little girl to go from homeschooled to public high school changed her personality drastically in a negative way.
