[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Step kiddo 27 was a “promising student” in school but hasn’t been much successful. Graduated from college with niche/unhelpful major, tried out the job rodeo (failed), now moving back in with us. I don’t support it, you’ve gotta move out and find yourself in that way, right? It’s what I always did and I turned out I just fine if I do say so myself. But DH claims that I “never saw [step kid] as my own kid” and that’s what’s fueling my feelings. Well no, I saw my step kid as my step kid. All right and so what? The issue I need your helps with is encouraging my STEP child to move out while avoiding drama with DH. [/quote]

Maybe you should move out? Find yourself in that way? It would be a kindness to both your husband and his child. Because, frankly, you sound like a festering, rancid twat. [/quote]

Ignore this.  Maybe someone should move out, but it depends on the circumstances.  Start with saying no, the stepkid is too old to move home.  If that doesn't work, explore other options, including divorce if you'd rather be divorced than living with your stepson, which might be the case. [/quote]
