[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]what's your question?[/quote]

How best to approach my DD about this? Should I talk to her or let her be?
This isn't a post to put anyone in a bad light. [/quote]

Tell her not to bite the hand that feeds her, because her stepmother holds ALL the cards.  She is the wife now.  I'd beware and play nice.  Plus, while it may seem yuck now, many years from now, when your daughter is 46 and her sister is 30, they might be glad to have each other.  [/quote]

OP here ..what do you mean holds all the cards?[/quote]

Her father can leave everything to his new wife and leave your 16 year old zero.  Like mine did.  [/quote]

OP here my DD did ask for him for 3000 dollars for driving school and he refused. Told her to use the cash he has put in her savings account. Birthday money has gone from 500 to 200 dollars. So he is being mean. [/quote]  Or strapped.  She doesn't need $3k for driving school.  You can easily teach her.

Driving school does not cost $3K.  He is right.  And, his portion of driving school should be paid for via child support and you also pay a portion.  How much were you planning to pay?

$500 for birthday's is absurd.  $200 as well.  We'd only do that for any child if it was a specific need.

At 16, she can get a job and pay for the expensive driving school.  [/quote]
