I can't put it until words but he's about 10 years younger then her and he tries to buys my brothers affection by taking them to football games and buying them video games. he asked me if I wanted something and I told him to just give me money and my mom took it as me being rude. But I wasn't! I mean he's giving them things! Plus, he's always at our house! He's never slept over that I know of but I know they are doing more then just holding hands, which makes her a hypocrite since she always tells me to say no. One day I caught him listening to my Ipod and I snapped at him to give it back. And my mom said since she bought it anyway it was okay if he listened to it! I'm so sick of him and I want her to dump him. It doesn't help that my grandmother is joking about him being my stepfather since I don't think it's funny at all. And I don't want her to marry him anyway! That would be horrible! What should I do?

When you talk to your Mom, compare her current boyfriend to her former boyfriends. Point out the problems that she had with her exes and show that her current boyfriend has the same traits as her exes. maybe she'll put 2 and 2 together and start to dislike him.

I dont see one legitimate reason here why you should hate him. He sounds nice to me. You need to ask yourself what the real reason is you dont like him. Im not trying to be mean to you but your making yourself miserable over this when it may not be necessary. Is it because he is getting the attention from your mother that you want to have and youre getting less of that now?
Your mother has a right to some happiness too so you need to figure things out with her before you end up alone in this with no one to turn to.

You have an attitude that needs a more positive approach. Be respectful of others. Your mother has a right to go with this guy, and from what you've said, he's done nothing wrong. Work on getting a better attitude and if you don't like him, that is unfortunate.

Your Mom gets to decide this one on her own babe. I know you don't like this answer but it is 100% honest. i'm only 24 so i still remember what it was like to be a kid but i'm also a mother....and sometimes kids forget parents are people too. Someday there is gonna be a boy u like ALOT. and when ur mom says she don't like him will u listen?? Let her have this and try an have a good attitude about it it will help ur mom alot.

You should quit being so selfish and think about your mother's happiness. He doesn't sound like he's a bad guy, but you sound like you are acting like a brat. I think you should try to be mature and give the guy a chance. The next guy might not be so nice.

Well he sounds like he's just being nice and there is nothing wrong with being nice. You need to give him a chance and stop being so selfish. Think of your mothers happiness.

Not a whole lot you can do about it, your mom is an adult and can see whomever she wants. As long as he isn't abusive to you or your brothers, there is nothing you can do. Sounds like he is just trying to make friends with you and your brothers, and maybe you should cut him some slack.

I think this might be more about you feeling abandoned than about anything else.
Maybe accept the fact that your mom doesn't feel she has enough kids so had to get a boyfriend younger than you? I don't know what else to say? sounds weird to me.
Accept it and move on.... and if your mom's having sex, well, it's normal... no need to judge her, even if she judges others... it's wrong.
