writes:My boyfriend and I are both in our late 40's. He has a teenage son and a daughter in her first year old college. He treats his son well and discipline's him appropriately. His daughter, on the other hand, gets away with murder. Everything she does is 'cute' no matter how immature it is. When she is home from school, I don't exist. She lies about many things and plays manipulative games between her parents to get her way. He ALWAYS believes her, even if it is obvious she is lying. When she is around, they act like husband and wife,...it is kind of sick. If I point out some worrysome behavior of hers, he ALWAYS takes her side, and never considers what I am saying as a remote possibility. (I usually and right, by the way, but he would never admit it) I think it is great to love your child unconditionally, but his behavior is actually rewarding her lies and manipulations and is preventing her from growing into a responsible adult.I don't think I can live my life like this, with her always up on a pedestal. I have talked to him about it, and he doesn't see his own behavior. I guess I am jealous, because he treats her so much better than I.Any suggestions?
