[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 451393, member: 84"] Well, I've not read the other responses. If it were me? I'd tell her to take her rules and stuff em where the sun don't never shine. (or maybe it does and that's her whole problem) Rules? Uh, no. You are not her child whom she can boss as she pleases. She can just get over herself already. My response would be that you have no issue with the kids dating, you have no reason not to trust the kids, the kids are under adult supervision when in your home, and that you thank her for her concern. Then drop it totally. No argument. No drama. No phone calls. Nothing. Unfortunately you'll get this occasionally. This has nothing to do with your easy child, and everything to do with this "woman's" control over her step son. I would also make it a point to calmly explain this to easy child so she realizes that this woman would be this way with [B]any [/B]girl this boy brought home. Then leave it up to the kids. You can't control J or his stepmother. But that doesn't mean she gets to control you or what goes on in your house. If easy child still wants to see him knowing the situation, then don't worry about it. You can't protect her from people like this forever and the sooner she learns it's all about them the better. If J wants to see easy child, he [B]will[/B] see easy child. Kids are like that. I guess what I'm saying is let it stay in his family where the issue lies. [/QUOTE]
