[QUOTE="love is a fine line, post: 747606, member: 23730"] I am the step to a 7yo that is very manipulative and cunning. He is pleasantly cheerful around others but strikes out at me when no one else is around. Dad is not his bio but tricked into giving his last name and now raising him due to the bio mom being locked up and found to be unfit for her other children. We are both lost but he looks at me like this is brought on by my being an ex cop and majored in psychology. if I just acted like a parent and was nicer he'd stop fighting with me. That hasn't worked either. I'm exhausted and losing my relationship. I put both of his kids in therapy because we just got custody of his 11yo daughter and she has lot's of ongoing issues as well. I am drowning and don't know how to make this a safe environment for myself much less his daughter or mine. She confronted him about how miserable he makes us all and his answer is this is normal sibling stuff buck up and be a better big sister. She doesn't want to and hates that she is called his big sister when she is the baby and feels replaced and displaced by his presence in her dad's life.....please any suggestions.....lost in the madness [/QUOTE]
