Teen tells dad he won’t go on vacation, revealing deeper issues

A 17-year-old Male reveals why he won’t go on vacation with his dad , potentially ruining his marriage. The teen’s dad married his mom’s friend who cheated on her, and they have three kids together. The father tried to make him accept his new family, including calling his wife ‘mom.’ The teen stopped going to his dad’s house at 14, partly because his stepmom was hostile toward him. Recently, the father took his four kids on a vacation and offered the teen a ticket. When the teen declined, the father pushed for an explanation, leading to the teen revealing the mean things his stepmom said to him. The father did not respond well, and the tension resulted in the teen not speaking to his dad since. The stepmom even texted the teen, calling him a brat and blaming him for potentially ruining his half-siblings’ home life. The situation is complicated, and it remains to be seen if the father and son can reconcile. Stay tuned for updates on this ongoing family drama.
