New here first post. I have been with my husband ten years this spring. He has two kids 13 and 15. They will be 14 and 16 this summer. They are horrible and he refuses to see it. The girl (13) is sneaky and manipulative. The boy (15) was recently escorted out of school after he threw chairs and threatened to burn the school down. He has a serious temper. He is already over 6 ft tall and uses his size to intimidate and his temper can kick in out of no where. Counseling doesn't seem to have done anything. The only thing on his Christmas list was knives which I refused to buy.

I am 47 yo female.  No married but living with 53 yo father of 3 for almost 5 years.  I have one daughter of my own who is grown and has her own family.  His oldest is 31 and has his own family. #2 is 18 and I get along with him great.  His youngest is the issue.  He is 16.  The first 4 years he was awful to me. Everything I said or did was "mean" and reported it all to his father  who didn't understand I was only trying to teach him to be respectful.  His father "disciplined" me.  He made hurtful comments about the food I made, my hair, how big I was.  Everything.
