Well, I have to acknowledge a lot of pain with this one.
Been married to my second wife 22 years... brought up her son, now 26 , as best I could.....he's turned out an utter waste.....won't work, won't get out of bed, contributes nothing to our household....just wants to play the computer....this coming year either he goes or I go.....I think, sadly, it may be me...mum dotes on him and can see no wrong.
My daughter has worked since she was 16....is happily married and a joy to be around.
Her mum and I ,though divorced 10 years before I remarried, brought her up between us as though we were still together.... cooperatively and without rancour.
Both kids were loved and treated the same by us,all.
