Everyone keeps babying my SS

He is such a pain the the FU***** Ass. Almost 18 years old and just totally pathetic. I married a man whose first wife had died when SS was 13. My H and I are constantly fighting about him. It is tearing our marriage apart. My H wants him to finish high school which is normally a good thing, but this kid is almost 18 and still taking mostly 9th grade classes. WHAT THE HELL??? By H keeps thinking he's "going to turn things around." This kid is such a manipulative, lying, conniving little creep. I can barely stand to be in the same room with him.

Just so mad right now

I really am just so mad at this constant babying! My husband just keeps thinking everything is going to work out. "I think he will turn things around." I am so tired of hearing it and I am sorry to say, I don't really care anymore I just want SS almost 18 to leave. I know that sounds horrible. people say to me, "well, you knew he had a kid when you married him." Yes, that is true, but I didn't know how fuc*** up he was or that he would apparently being living with us for 10 more years. I am just so frustrated I don't know what to do. I feel like an outsider in my own home.

This is the kind of stuff that drives me crazy

I know this may sound like a small thing, but last night my SS17 almost 18, asked his father another one of those "baby questions" as I like to call them. They drive me crazy! Things SS should know and not have to ask "daddy". Last night, my husband told SS that today he wanted him to clear away the spider webs around the outside of the house (not dangerous with spiders) which the kid likes anyway, and get rid of any empty insect nest again not dangerous or anything.

I wish I didn't feel this way

My SS17 (almost 18) has been back from his grandmother's for about two weeks now and the stress and tension are back too. I wish I didn't feel like this. When SS was away, it was like a whole different atmosphere around here. Relaxed, not feeling like someone is lurking around which is something my SS does. I know his mother died and I, as well as numerous other people, have tried to help him in so many ways. He just refuses to even listen. We have tried counseling. He won't talk.

I think my stepson is emotionally disturbed

This is kind of long, but I just really need to vent about some things and maybe get some advice from someone who has been in this kind of situation. I am in my second marriage. My first marriage lasted for 10 years but we never had children. Not a plan. It just didn't happen. Well, my second husband has a son. He is an only child. My husband's wife died of cancer when SS was 13. He is currently 17 (almost 18). At first, I was very sympathetic with my SS. He seemed to be a kind, good kid. He was 15 then. I had lost both of my parents (one to cancer) granted not as a child.
