[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is neglect. Room board and drug money are not all it takes to parent.  
I bet your little darlings get all sorts of treats and enrichment programs and teams don't they?[/quote]
She’s an adult, it’s not neglect. Yes, of course my children have everything they need.[/quote]

Oh FFS. You seem to think buying them everything you need is good parenting. But good parenting requires FAR more than that. Your stepdaughter needs boundaries. She needs accountability. Maybe she needs some tough love. She needs someone to help her get mental health treatment. Is she getting that from her father who supposedly is a good parent? No she is not. Would you want your DH to ignore your children's needs if they get in this kind of situation? [/quote]

No, he isn’t neglecting her needs. He’s doing the best that he can.[/quote]

What specifically is he doing, though? You've been asked many times and haven't said even one action that he has taken. [/quote]
