SUBJECT: Help me!!!!!!!
My finace's three year old son is testing his limits on every ground. He is distructive and mean. He has ruined three comforters, two of which were not his. These comforters were not cheap, we had paid lot of money for them. He has ruined every pillow that we give/gave him. He has a bm and smears it all over the walls and throws it across the room. I tell him he is a bad boy, and is not watching TV or movies for the day and he tells me that I am not his mom, and he doesn't have to listen to me. His mother does not have custody and has not seen or spoken to him in over a year. I have been his mother figure for two years, he calls me mommy and expects me to be the mommy. I am getting to the point where I don't know what to do. When we go to my fiture in-laws house, they tell me that I am too hard on him and that he is only three and doesn't know right from wrong. They give him whatever he wants, if he doesn't eat and wants a cookie or a candybar, even after I stated that he is not allowed to have it, they give it to him anyway. My fiance allows this to happen, then I am the bad one. I stay at home with him all day, and he is the one at work. I need some help, any suggestions for a step-mother that is going off the deep end.
