[quote=Anonymous]OP, This is rough. I do hope you find some compassion for this kid. He's not in a good place ... he's lost. He might be much, much angrier than you. He might wish his dad was unattached, he might resent the new sibling. He might resent having to deal with you and his dad on all this, even if you're in the background, because he knows his dad's decisions are influenced by you. The economy is in the tank, he's lucky he's earning what he's earning. As for PP's take the the finances are beyond your control, I don't think that's the case. There is overlap, since you contribute to your household's finances. It's complicated. Unless DH is drawing down from premarital savings. (Are there none?) Your plan sounds good. This boy could use counseling, too. Finally, careful what you post. Lots of details here that might this situation identifiable. Does DH know about this post?[/quote]
