StepDad Doesn’t Get Invited To His Daughter’s Graduation.
- Thread starter ThrobbingHood

First,
Why wouldn't this story be true?
Especially these days when some ppl talking about kids and other ppl come before a spouse...
Step Dad has every right to feel hurt. He raised the step daughter since she was a child.
He provided a roof over her head, food and clothing, bought her toys and other miscellaneous stuff throughout her life..
EFF you mean he wasn't worthy of attending her graduation??
Now, let's assume that the step daughter didn't like him..
OK, what step child like their step parents, especially the ones who may have disciplined them and assume the role as head of household?
See, the problem is that you have biological parents who forgot the pecking order in the household.
The spouses are the first priority! Then come the children and after that extended family members and friends, in that order..
Best believe this same step daughter would expect her step Dad to pay for her wedding, but would want her biological Dad to walk her down the aisle.
Bottomline..
It's a respect thing!
If I am not gonna be a priority, then I will not be in your life! Got me effed up thinking I am just a human wallet and tertiary in the pecking order and I gotta just "deal with it"!
Bull-iish!!
Step Dad's wife was out of pocket allowing her husband who took care of her child to be treated like that!
Dude didn't have to marry the mother and certainly didn't have to care for a child that isn't his biologically..
But, he did what the biological Dad didn't do and didn't get the respect as the biological Dad.
Yep, I'll be petty and if it was me, I would also be divorced..
I would do exactly what step Dad did and took the step child off all of my insurances along with Will & Trust..
Sure the fugg would!
If I ain't iish, then my benefits and assets ain't iish either!
Breh need to have a nice talk with his wife and let her know how iish gonna go moving forward..
What happens after that talk gonna happen!
*shrugs*

Nothing is missing.
My father raised my half sister and pulled something very similar to this during her HS graduation.
I don't like the fact that if I said that, the assumption would be made that "something is missing" or the stepfather isn't telling everything when many times there isn't anything missing.
Sometimes you raise children that aren't yours and the resentment they have for their absent father goes to the only person who's been a father figure in their life.
My sister's biological father was never in her life, my father raised her since she was 4 and she actually had the audacity to tell him "I didn't ask you to take care of me growing up" during a conversation they had.

I will take the story as is, and consider the circumstances the story is displaying. Whether it is true or false matters not to my assessment of the story.
Simply put, if you don't attempt to take care of another man's child who is not related to you in anyway, you will never have to deal with this problem. Alternatively, if you only consider a single mother whose husband passed away under honorable circumstances, then you probably will not have to deal with this problem.
So, if you are not out here trying to save a woman from her own poor choices when it comes to choosing a man to have children with, you will most likely not have this problem.

Seems more like something that would happen to a white man.
In the black community, if you’ve been raising a child since they’re 4 months old, that “step” shyt goes out the window. Using the word step would be considered an insult in that scenario.
There’s certain shyt we don’t do. Like if you technically have a “half “ sibling and grew up in the same household, no one goes around saying “this is my half sibling.” Shyt is silly.
Oh well homie was being used for his resources.

Why'd he let the wife off easy, that's where the story loses me.

If that kid didn't ASK you to buy them shoes then you were just trying to pay for their loyalty and they don't respect you for real.
nikkas think they can just buy other people's kids random shyt and start bossing em around
hell no. They still don't know you like that at the end of the day...Maybe try making a real bond or connection first instead of strong arming it with money.
i didn't even control the invites to my high school graduation. my parents decided who made the cut.

I feel like I have heard some variation of this story multiple times now.
