[QUOTE="klmno, post: 363619, member: 3699"] It sounds like he's picked up on you feeling torn between husband and him sometimes- this might be subconsciously and nnot necessarily intentionally manipulation, in my humble opinion. I think it's pretty common in blended families. Of course, he's at the age where he'll start trying any method he can to push normal limits anyway- it just comes with the territory of an adolescent and teen. I suggest reminding him that husband is your husband and you DO havee loyalty and love for him, but you also will always be there for manster. That being said, husband had every right to fuss over the heat being turned on when it's 78 degrees and he should not have had water balloons in the house. So whatever consequences he got for that- so be it. End of subject. No cajoling or pity or whining to be listened to. [/QUOTE]
