hi all this is my first post.
my 17 year old son has never accepted my husband properly.we have been together for 7 years and have 2 girls now aged 4 and 5.
for the last 3 months life with g has been hell he picks constant fights with us over every little thing.calls my husband every name he can think of if he cant use the phone straight away .he is really nasty to his sisters.etc etc.
my hubby has benn really good to him taken him on as his own warts and all,gives him money ,picks him up from all his social events.
I told him he would have to move out if this carried on and tried really hard for us all to compromise so g wouldnt be so miserable ,its like treading on eggshells.
I know hes jealous of the little ones nad never knew his dad but hubby has treated him really well.
g went to stay with his grandmother a few months ago for a week and treated them the same ,she said I had spoilt him and given him too much just because his real dad wasnt around and I know think he is right.
he wants to move out now but I dont want him leaving us on bad terms,I feel so caught up in the middle its hard to know what to do.I have done my best to talk to him and listen to his feelings and see things from his point of view
does anyone have any advice ,should I let him stand on his own 2 feet or be making him stay,
thank you any advice would be sooo welcome....
