I'm a SAHM and my husband won't let me send money to my teen son. Who's right?

This "kid" is an adult. Fail.

So step-dad doesn't pay for college tuition or room & board and refuses to give a modest monthly allowance as his wife can't work with their two young kids – but he will absolutely gloat and take all the credit if the step-kid becomes successful? What a crock.

What is this about the step-dad taking credit for the kid? This shit you project is unbelievable. Do you write fiction for a living?

Because even if their wife went back to work, the amount she'd earn would either just cover daycare or not even cover daycare, so they'd be taking a loss.

The #1 thing they complain about is the lack of sex.

How is wanting your wife to contribute the same as you, instead of spend their days doing made-up pta work and getting their nails done once the kids are in school, "wanting more for less"? What does your statement have to do with anything?

OP just withdrawal cash from an ATM to send to your son and say it was for something else. Or buy him gift cards at a grocery store with a few other items to make the cost not an even number.
