[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 13095775, member: 6727"] I have to agree that it is likely that her love for her son exceeds the love she has for you. That makes it very difficult to work this out with her without a good deal of compromise on your side. It is unlikely that she will compromise if it negatively affects her son. And her son is unlikely to change any time soon. Tough age. Is he an only child? This is something you're both going to have to discuss deeply, and then decide where you both stand with each other and within your blended family. Right now, you're the bad guy in both her eyes and her son's eyes. Tough position for you, especially when she doesn't seem to be able to discipline her son and that's where it primarily has to come from. She is his natural mom. You're the step-dad. She is not backing you. She is backing her son. I hope that you can work this out with her, but it is going to be an uphill battle for you with the present state of things. Be aware that if they move back in with you without some change and a willingness to make this work for all of you, things can very well get worse. [/QUOTE]
