Guest guest Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 HI everyone I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I need help with an ongoing family problem. My stepsister has always favored my oldest son he is 17 and my youngest is high functioning and 6 years old. So as we all know too well my youngest behavior is not always the greatest but we work hard to help him with his emotions. So at Easter I invited the whole family over and he had a meltdown stepsister felt it nessecary to once again reprimand my child in front of me and his dad and also told him that someone should " ring his bell " for his behavior. I blew my top and pretty much sent everyone home. So then comes his birthday and nothing from stepsister and then comes 17 year olds birthday and of course there she is with a card stuffed with money for him. So now Christmas I made other plans to not have to see her and she leaves a card at the grandparents house, probably stuffed with money, and again and nothing for the 6 year old. I want to give her the card back and tell her if she can't treat both of my children the same not to give anything to either one. My oldest will be 18 next year and she can do what she wants then but for now I still call the shots with my kids and think that they should be treated equally. Please let me know from an outsiders point of view what you guys think. If you think I am wrong please let me know. If you have a more tactfull way of making my point please let me know.
