Is it so wrong to take a little boy to support his favorite soccer team? I hate to see adults downplay the importance of their relationship with the children in their lives. I’m not talking about a random family member a kid sees once or twice a year: I’m talking about grown-ups who actively take …

Widow refuses to let her 17 and 22-year-old sons call their stepdad of 15 years their ‘dad’: ‘My late husband’s worst fear was they would grow up without him and forget him.’
Should their mom and their late father be the ones who determine how they refer to their father-figure of 15 years?
Stepdad cuts off 27-year-old stepson because he only talks to him to ask for money: ‘He’s a a full-grown man with a job and a wife.’
He has been his stepson’s dad his whole life, but his stepson has made it clear that he doesn’t value having a close, emotional relationship with him.
17-year-old refuses to wake his stepmother up after she sleeps through all of her alarms: ‘I am a teenager and she is a 36 year old women.’
She should’ve learned how to get herself up in the morning by the time she was 13! She shouldn’t have to rely on her stepson to be a functioning member of society. There are times when sleeping through your alarm is totally understandable. I often tell myself that I’m going to wake up at 5 …

Mom refuses to let 21-year-old daughter take her stepson’s bedroom after she got kicked out of her dad and stepmom’s house: ‘Under NO circumstances would I EVER kick out my stepson from his room because she “wanted” it.’
She’s lucky that her mom is letting her stay in her house. You shouldn’t disrupt actual children’s lives to accommodate adult children who should be able to take care of themselves.

Father stands up for 8-year-old stepson after grandmother excludes him from family gatherings for years, under the guise of being germ-conscious: ‘[She wants] him to feel unwanted’
Going over to Grandma’s house as a child is a special feeling.

This feeling is unmatched and pales in …

Stepmom refuses to pay for her 10-year-old stepson’s private school, dad and mom get angry despite saving $0 towards his education: ‘He has 2 parents and I can’t understand why it’s all up to me to save’
Nobody is entitled to attend a fancy private school, which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on their life prospects.
