My ten year step son drives me nuts. He whines and will not to anything with us unless its all about him. When my husband and I met my step son was seven. He couldn't tie his shoes, or ride a bike. His mother treats him like his four. she does everything for him. I have two sons from my first marriage. they are 10 and 6. They get A's and are athletic. anyway this kid drives me crazy, we have a three bedroom house and he comes over every other weekend and has his own room!! my boys have to share because he through such a fit.
