[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is clear from your language that you dislike your fiance's child.  You should not marry this man.  He should not marry a woman who clearly dislikes his kid; he needs to focus on his child right now.[/quote]

I actually think it is clear that the OP cares about the kid , which is why she is concerned that he will have social issues in middle school.

OP, you are in a rough spot as the stepparent-to-be since it appears the biological parents are in denial about the kids issues. Honestly, to me, it sounds like he may be on the spectrum &, if it were my kid, I'd have him evaluated. You said your fiance's family also seems concerned about his son's behavior. Is there a family member -- one of his parents or siblings, maybe? -- who your fiance might listen to? If so, I would ask him or her to talk to him.[/quote]

I am definitely concerned about next year. Kids are cruel and middle school is tough enough as it is. I am so worried about how things will go for him next year. I don't want this to affect him long-term. And it's not like my fiance can even do anything, because his son's mother is the one who controls the medical part. It's joint decision making, but she doesn't share who his doctor is or when he goes and she has his insurance card. (her control issues are another issue) And don't you need both parents consent to see a psychologist or get evaluated?

School starts in 5 weeks. I'm upset and annoyed that I'm more worried about this than his parents are. He is going to a school where he already doesn't know anyone because they moved, which is going to make things worse.[/quote]
