[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the girl is your stepdaughter you do nothing. It is up to her father (assume he is your DH) to address the issue.

There is no reason for a stepparent to get involved in disciplinary issues with a teen. [/quote]
OP here.  She is my step daughter but I love her as my own.  I agree 100% with you.  [b]I do not get involved with disciplinary issues.  That's her fathers responsibility.[/quote][/b]

The bold is what you should say to your SIL if she brings it up to you again.  Your daughter was right to turn her down(so proud of her)[b] BUT it was VERY rude of her to laugh in her face [/b]and walk off.  [/quote]

dp I think it is great she stood up for herself.    $10 an hour for four kids is laughable![/quote]

A person can stand up for themselves without being a d#**## about it.  SIL probably hasn’t gone on a date night in years and didn’t know what the going rate is.  That’s not a reason to laugh at her, more especially given that she’s family. [/quote]

SD was rude but maybe SIL is an annoying narc who deserves it. I think I’m right considering the insulting offer and the fact that she’s huffing about it still.[/quote]

It seems like a big leap to call her a drug addict? Or a rat? I don't understand how you are using narc?[/quote]

There’s a subset of people on this site who call anyone they disagree with a narcissist. And they enjoy shortening words even though autocorrect automatically fills in the rest. It takes more effort to type in “narc” just so you feel cool (it’s not) than to use the full word narcissist. It’s the same people who like to use words like merch for merchandise, pap for paparazzi, etc. It’s kinda sad actually.[/quote]
