Bad night

Those issues I mentioned my stepson having? During the debate over whether he should have a car?

They just got infinitely worse. We were summoned from a Christmas party tonight by Hubs' ex. My stepson was at the police department. I'm waiting for Hubs to get home. He's bringing T. with him. I'd say at this point there's a fairly decent chance we're about to have a teenage boy living with us.

I'm worried about my stepson. He's 16, too young to be screwing up his life.

And I feel horrible for Hubs. His face, when he took that call...

Awful.

Oh dear. Let us know if we can offer any advice or support. I'll keep you and your stepson in my prayers - perhaps it is just a phase (crossing fingers...)

I'm so sorry. We've gotten similar calls and it's always scary. I hope everything is OK.

Sounds like the kid is hurting. This is a hard time of year for children from broken homes tring to be parented by people who live in two different households. My heart goes out to him.....I know the feeling.
