No wonder he doesn't listen to a mother who chose a new husband and family when he was eight yrs old. Gabe sounds perfectly reasonable and sane more than OP certainly.

She was paying the rent before by putting out. She's practiced and talented. Why stop now?

He have tried to use his position to force his father's girlfriend to give him things back. He have even gone as far as get rid of all television and video game systems that isn't in someone bedroom simply because he don't like or watch television. Now no one but Gabe want to be in the living room.
He also almost immediately sold two of his father's own cars for low price without even talking to his father's girlfriend about it.
Why would Gabe made his father's girlfriend give up the master bedroom so he can move in?
Gabe have done many things that just make it seems like he's manipulating to get things his way and not being mature about anything.
Kicking someone out of the house is just horrible. Yet Gabe doesn't even care even when this woman was crying in front of him. He doesn't even care about those kids and whenever the questions about the kids are brought up, he just brush it off and say they're not his problem.

I don't like the idea of him being out on his own. He's still only sixteen.
I know he want to sell the house and buy a small condo to move in to reduce the burden of owning a place. But I'm afraid about letting him doing this. I feel he still have a lot of growing up to do.
My step son is Gabe's age and mature, but I could never imagine him being on his own.

You don't seem to get that this woman and her children are not his responsibility. He is a 16 year boy. Honestly this is one of the craziest situations I have read on DCUM, and sadly it seems to be true. I do not understand at all who you think he is manipulating. Do you expect him to go out and get a job to support his dead father's girlfriend and children forever? You make no sense! If you are so worried about the girlfriend and her children, why don't you support them? They could move in, or you could rent them an apartment.

If you feel he is truly not mature enough to be out on his own, then boarding school is the answer.

BTW, where are you from? I can only assume that some of your mindset and disconnect is cultural.

You are funny, but terrible.

You're right... I moved in with my new husband when Gabe was 8 and tried to make it work a few times and it didn't go well so Gabe went to live with his father for a bit then come back a few more times before we decided he's better to stay with his father.
