When your step kids are just utterly unlikeable

8 years in...now that ss15.5 is getting older I thought thing would get better but no. 8 years in...cusp of adult hood..... definitely not,,,,,

 

posted a a few weeks ago ss15 failed important pre exams . Bm has told my dh he is on top of homework during the week and can’t take books to our house in case he loses them. This is when we have ss every weekend.True story. Turns out ss is a lazy git and failing everything. Also deplorable behaviour in school. All kids start off with behaviour record at 100% he is now minus 425%. Bm rings my husband last month saying he will be kicked out if school not allowed back sept yet this is the first we had heard about it.

Ss has also been aggressive in bms house “I’m bigger than than you all” comments to stepdad and bm. He is 5 stone bigger than me and bm so I view this as threatening behaviour however he would never dream to speak like this in our house!

i just can’t pretend to even like him anymore. He doesn’t care about his two younger siblings here even though they idolize him, I have sent him videos in the past of my babies asking for him.... no response

he comes to us every weekend. Husband flies back to us today and goes to collect ss....no answer and has not responded all day 

 

bm inconsistent. Rings dh asking him to seal with his bad behaviour than says my dh is too hard on him. No consequences for his bad behaviour at home and school. Has his first state exams in six weeks. The ones he’s failed in preparation and done no homework. He was taken out of school last fridY for the day to attend bms friends son christening, ss is not close to this friend. 

 

Unlikeable low class b, unlikeable ss, surely dh feels the same but doesn’t comment when I say it, ss is a pig when he is here at the weekend and dh used to spend a lot of money on him. I now do meal planning and had defrosted so much food for ss. Pissd off he still hasn’t both red to tbe lol dh he isn’t coming,...... ugh sick of him and trashy bm my husband decided to have a one night stand with at 18 years old..... life is so unfair. God I have tried with this kid but he could not be more unlikeable if he tried.

I am SO glad that I met DH after SS was an adult. SS was problematic even before he hit kindergarten.  He had countless intervention programs - BM worked at a major first class hospital and her father was a doctor on the board at a regional hospital. SS had access to every program available. Nothing worked. 

Sometimes a truly warped individual cannot be fixed anymore than one can cure all cancer patients.

Some people are just unlikable. Their personalities clash with ours. It doesn't matter whether they're kids or how they're related to us. We just don't like them. YSS is one of those people for me. He's spoiled, entitled, haughty, and thinks he's better than anyone else. Granted, it's BM's fault for making him that way, but the fact remains he's unlikable.I don't feel bad about it. You shouldn't either. You can't help who you like and who you don't.
