My Stepson Is Mad at Me and I Blame His Mother and Father?

Question by sharene h: My stepson is mad at me and I blame his mother and father?
About a week ago my perfect 14 year old stepson started acting out toward me and his dad. He won’t talk to us and he seems really angry. I asked him what was going on and found out his MIA mother has been calling and asking him to come visit her in Minneapolis. The problem is she lives with a drug dealer and is a chronic alcoholic who lost my stepson to foster care for abusing him five years ago. The answer is no in my eyes because I love him dearly, I also work in law enforcement and what kind of hypocrite would I be to let him go there? He worked with his 18 year old sister and she agreed to have him stay with her. His dad said it was ok but found out later that his sister also lives with a drug dealer. His dad had to tell him that he changed his mind and that caused my stepson to get even more angry and act out. His dad has never really disciplined him, I would if it was necessary but now they are both acting like they want me to stay out of the entire situation.

Best answer:

Answer by ilovejb:]
I’m 14 and coming from my prospective he’s mad because he isn’t getting what he wants. He’s probably hurt that he can’t see his mom but doesn’t see that seeing her isn’t good for him.
