Why does my my five year old step-son always cry, wine, argue or get angry when he does not get his way?
He has a very good father. He spends all of his free time with him. I am the step mother and my husband and I and my step son and I seem to be having constant problems as a result of my husband not discipling him ever. My husband thinks I can't handle him, that there is something wrong with me.
My husband is talking about divorce because of this. I tell him it's his son and the fact that he does not get discipline from him. Also, he needs my husband's constant attention and gets upset when he doesn't always get his way.
My answer to your 1st question is. Obviously your step son is a spoiled manipulative kid.
Your husband is not a good father is he can't even discipline his own son. You and your husband should have a heart to heart talk about the situation. That his son needs to be disciplined especially by him. And if ever there is a circumstances that you need to do it yourself, he should back you up and let his son knows there is no difference who ever disciplines him, he has to ober both of you. About the divorce case, ask your husband, is that the only basis or reason why he married you? to take care of his son? you two should be partners, if the kid don't listen to you he should initiate the disciplining since its his son and will listen to him. But if he still insists to divorce you because of his controlling son, don't waste your life taking care of the 2 boys in the house. Remember, you are a wife and a mother not a psychologist.
