I have been in many relationships that kids have been involved but my wife's son is the worse in my eyes. I am a father of five of my own and two of my five live with me my wife and her 8 year old son. My Son is 10 and my daughter is 13 that live with us. When I met my wife she told me about how she wanted a man in her son's life and how he needs a man to teach him things that as a woman she can't. So here I fall inlove with this woman and move me and my kids 3,000 miles from New Jersey to California to be with her and its been hell ever since. Don't get me wrong me and my wife have good moments but when it comes to her son thats when the war starts. This kid is not dum. He knows how to play his mom and get what he wants from her and all she does is baby him. I mean my god the boy is eight years old and my 7 year daughter back in Jersey has more heart then him. He also like to get my son in trouble for things and when I don't jump in my son's butt my wife trows in my face that I always think my son is an angel and he does nothing wrong. I am so sick of hearing that cause I catch alot of what them kids do and her son is a hot mess. Like my kids could be down stairs watching tv and here son will go to her and start wining that my kids wont let him watch tv so she will make my kids turn it. Then there was one time were the boys were playing xbox and because my son was beating her son in a game her son got mad and tried to break my son's xbox. She makes excuses for the things he does but when my son does something I need to beat him cause he is being mean(NO I WILL NOT!!!!). She gets mad when my son asks me if me and him can hang out...I get thrown in my face we are suppost to be a family and you need to make him understand that and its not just about him but yet I come home from work one day and my kids are sitting home by there self and she took her son to Disney Land and left mine home. I gave the kids chores to do around the house and the weeks that her son has the trash to take out there is always a reason why he can't do it but I am question why my son didn't do it..REALLY???? The sad thing is I really love my wife but this has been going on for to long and I am sick of it. I tried to be there for her son when I got out here but I also have rules and her son does not like to follow then so he will run to his mom. I tell him to do something and he goes to her behind my back for her to get him out of it. Crys about every little thing and acts like a big baby. He is always in are bed room wanting to hang out and when I tell him to leave he goes to her and she makes it okay for him to stay and it pisses me off. I don't even want his boy calling me dad and I have told him I am not your dad and I will never be your dad you have a dad and I am not him. deal with him less as I can and now its to the point I want to get a devorce cause all we do is fight over these kids. This boy has more rights in this house then me and my kids do and I am sick of it...like I said I love my wife but I am done. My son can't stand him and he doesn't even want to be near him and I am not goig to make do it nomore.

Have you tried some type of counseling? Either marriage or family. It sounds like what is needed here.

How long did you know your wife before moving all the kids in together?

I hear you and I agree. I know my kids are no angels but the 2 against 1 thing no I don't agree with. My daughter doesn't get involve and theres times I wish she would but she doesn't. Its just the boys and her son like I said ..he wants things his way and his way only.

You guys need BOUNDARIES!! For ALL your kids!

#1 Priority is YOUR MARRIAGE - you need to put eachother FIRST!
#1 Responsibility are YOUR KIDS

You and your wife are arguing and bickering about something that you can fix. You can fix this, by learning that you both are in a marriage and you should both be on the same page with regards to disciplining your children.

You shouldn't be wasting all your energies on trying to fix the behaviour of eachothers kids. Kids will be kids and they will fight and bicker - trick is to show them that you and your missus are a united front and will parent them together.

You also shouldn't be telling your Son that he can spend one-on-one time with you if there are other kids - what about your daughter? what about her kids? This is inviting trouble.

United you stand - divided you fall - this should be the oath of all couples blending with kids.

Oh - and by saying you can't stand him? It's not completely the kids fault that he's in this - you can help by treating ALL the kids in your household fairly.
