[quote=Anonymous]As a product of a blended family, it seems to me like you and your boyfriend have unreasonable expectations for how close your son and his son should be. My step brother is 3 years younger (and was 2 grades below) me and my mom and step dad didn't expect us to be close friends - they expected us to be nice to each other if the family did an activity together, and make conversation at meals, but other than that, they didn't force us to hang out if we wanted to do our own thing in the house. As an adult, I think my step brother is a nice guy but we have totally different interests, and don't really talk except for at holidays if the family gets together (or a call on one of our birthdays). Why are you trying to force these kids to be friends? Because they're the same gender? [/quote]
