A 16-year-old girl is considering leaving home to go live with her father after her stepbrother gets everything he wants at her expense. She had a good relationship with her mother before she married her stepfather six years ago. Her stepbrother Ian is treated like the center of the universe, and her mother gives him everything he wants.
The girl has had to give up things, including her room, braces, and volleyball, because of her stepbrother’s demands. Her father, who was overseas, is now offering to let her live with him. The girl told her mother, who became upset and cried but refused to let her leave.
The girl’s stepfather became angry and accused her of being selfish. The girl’s father is now planning to take her mother to court. The girl wonders if she is the one to blame for wanting to leave home.
