impossible stepdaughter
My step daughter is 15 she hates me and hates that I am with her father. Her mother is remarried and has a child, but she acts hipocritcal about the same situation with her father. She refuses for me to speak to her about anything she says that i should not be involved at all in anything in her life. my husband and i are at the end of our ropes...we do not know what to do or how to reach her, we have tried many different approaches but nothing seems to satisfy her. she is disrespectful to me and in my home, she also shows no respect to her father or affection towards him... she shows absolutely no compassion towards anything or anyone, she only acts cruel.....what can we do?
it seems like an impossible situation? my half sister growing up had the same issues and to this day (30Yrs later) still holds a grudge and resentment towards our father... her situation is impossible and has no and will not have any resolution. I am afraid that things will repeat themselfs with my step daughter...

Send her to boot camp. You
Send her to boot camp.
You have more power than you think and so does DH. I don't know what the custody agreement is but your DH needs to enforce his rights. He's the adult. He needs to take the power back. Have him call her school psychologist. If he hasn't heard of John Rosemond, he should google him.
as the boot hits the ass....
as the boot hits the ass.... love it!!!
You and DH don't have to
You and DH don't have to take her disrespect. Sounds like you have tried everything. If she is not acting like a respectable member of the family maybe you shouldn't treat her like one. I don't know what and how you provide for her but maybe no cell phone, no on line privileges, no TV in bedroom, she takes care of her own laundry, you don't have to cook for her, no driving her to events, etc. If I had a do over - that is how I would approach it.
