I have a very sweet step son who is ten, but he knows that his dad will let him do what ever he wants. Not necessarily because he is spoiled, but because dad will say yes to him to get him out of his hair, without really listening to what he is saying yes to. I often catch Daniel ( the son ) doing something I don't approve of (like playing a rated "M" game or watching a rated "R" movie in his room) because he knows asking his dad will get him what he wants, and I will tell him he can't do that. And he gets angry at me because dad said he could, but I said he can't. My husband refuses to change his behaviour, he doesn't think it's a big deal, in the mean time I am watching out for my sons well being, and looking like the bad guy. What can I do? There are no counselors in our small town, and my hubby has been this way for five years and constant fighting won't change his ways. I think Daniel is starting to hate me. =-(
