Please donāt be rude. Need advice.
I'm a mother of 3 adult children a grandmother to 5 . And a step mom to 11 yr old. My husband and I fight a lot over his son. I try very hard to have patience. My husband is extremely defensive of his son. If I say anything there comes excuses or shoving the blame on someone else. Mainly is older half siblings. I still have yet to meet his mom. It's been two years of me taking care of him!!!! She tells people I don't take care of him when he's with us. He lies steals and is disrespectful to adults. I can't even take him to my families house because his behaviors . I'm getting super aggravated because he pisses on everything. He's a bed wetter. But leaves his clothes and soiled linens on floor.

Your husband really needs to have your back. Heās 11 and is way past the age of it being acceptable to pee on things and leave them wherever, how disgusting. I understand his dad wanting to protect him but he needs to look at you as a mother figure to his son. He needs to take your advice, and use it. My husband has 3 kids from a past relationships. Iām really only close with 1, but no matter what my husband will take my side when it comes to discipline. Their mother isā¦ not the greatest so my husband really looks to me to be a team to help guide them & Iām grateful heās like that. He takes my opinion and uses it how he thinks is best, if we disagree we both each say our side of things and figure it out. Being a stepparent is hard but in the end youāre in his sons life as an adult figure and he just needs to respect that. Your husband needs to step up and stop blaming others to protect him. You guys will have a long hard time with him in life if he thinks the way he acts is acceptable.

Iāll say from my experienceā¦ you guys may not ever stop fighting over him and the things he does. Iām with a man who thinks the sun shines out of his son but in reality heās far from being a saint and everyone sees it but him. My situation again in 8 years hasnāt changed and never will and we fight all the time over it . (The boy is now 19 and still lives with us and heās doing basically nothing with his lifeā¦). People might judge me for this but I had to nacho that boy. Nacho kid nacho problem. Leave his messes for his dad to clean up and enforce he cleans up after his son. Maybe his father will open his eyes to the things he does that drive you nutsā¦ and if it doesnāt change you should ask yourself if you really want to live like that.
This is only an opinionā¦ and please keep that in mind. Anyone who hasnāt been in a situation like this will never understand it. I could even be totally wrong and maybe the kid needs some therapy and isnāt handling his parents split that well and this is him retaliating Anyways Iām sorry your going thru this. Itās not easy.

I donāt have advice for you. As I am going through something similar. Was with someone 8 years. His kids never did wrong. Always had excuses for everything. Never got disciplined.
We been living separately the past 2 years to try to work on things. His kids are 14 & 15 now and got caught vaping in my kids room. So now they arenāt allowed here. And mainly because their dad tries to be their friend before their parent. But the same rules apply to them as everyone else. If they canāt respect me and my house then they canāt come here.
So sorry I donāt have advice but best of luck to ya. Hope ya get some advice 
In the case of his enuresis, you should rule out medical concerns and then explore psychological concerns.

My deceased husband and I only fought ever because of his son . My husband made excuses for him
lying stealing breaking into cars etc as a young teen . He got caught and the judge became my friend. I turned my stepson every time he did something. Judge court ordered my husband for a psychological evaluation along with parenting classes. I was the one who enforced rules and consequences. My stepson is now 40 he was 8 when his Dad snd I met . He has thanked me for being a good mother . He has turned to me for everything since becoming a adult . He had not one bit of respect for his Dad . This boy has issues. My stepson had issues. He got the mental help he needed . He was abused and molested under his mothers care . My husband got him at 5. Badly damaged kid . Might want to get the boy some help

Kids act up in various ways when there is something wrong. You mentioned that you have adult kids and grandchildren and that you trying very hard to be patient with your step son. Maybe there needs to be some introspection on your part, perhaps you are done with raising kids and not as patient as you think you are. Then there may be some other tension that you havenāt met the mother and sheās bad mouthing you and thatās adding to your resentment and you are directing it to that child because your husband has not properly introduced you to the mother of his child, and yet you feel like they expect you to look after this child.
Kids donāt choose their parents or step parents for that matter, looks like this child is being blamed for things he has no control over.
Get him some help and decide for yourself if this is the life you really want, because the father and the child are a package deal and the mother well she will always be part of that deal.

So as a parent who had a troubled child my first piece of advice is go to the doctor regarding bed wetting, this is a huge concern for a child of his age. Second have him tested for any mental health issues. Some of this behavior could be due to his parents being apart and dad having someone else. I also suggest counseling for the child and parents (possibly couples counseling as well so you and your partner can get through these issues as a unit). My child was diagnosed with ADHD as a young boy and as he got older there were behavioral issues and we were told he had ODD as well (heās also border line bipolar). Never let any diagnosis be an excuse for behavior. Sit him down and let him know that while you love him and want whatās best for him some things need to change. Let him know I expect you to behave appropriately or else the consequence will be xxx. Then follow through. Let dad be a part of this process and have him help you decide what those consequences will be (this way he is on board and understands when something happens this is the result). I hope things work out for you and your family.

Is this the āonlyā point of contention between you and your husband? If not, and only if your husband refuses to ever be on your side, then weigh your options to get out of the marriage or consider it as a temporary issue until the boy is old enough to live on his own. He is undoubtedly going to fight you on getting therapy if he already doesnāt listen nor respect you fully. Try to be more a friend than a mom and let that settle into your relationship with him while still having boundaries as his stepmother. He should be respectful to you, but mine at that age was not either, fully, and would mischievously find ways to make me look badly while my husband takes his side. It was close to a nightmare. I finally got footing as he got older. By 14/15, he started coming into his own as a good person. But it takes a ton and s half of patience for a step parent and unfortunately itās not always obvious whatās the matter to the biological parent who is already fighting to stay on the good side as it is, but sometimes they fail miserably and the step has to (read NEEDS TO/MUST) step in as this is still a minor in need of important boundaries. Test after test, you need to remain patient knowing they need these boundaries and they actually do start to listen eventually. Mine is 17 now and honors everything. Stay strong, and you need to have your own life with friends and outlets/interests in order to stay patient, positive, and whole.Also, itās a must you both find ways to tell him you love him regardless how much he detracts from it. He needs someone to see right through his actions and see him as a person looking for someone to understand the real him underneath the attitudes. Heās still to young to grasp what we take for granted as common sense. Try to be as caring and thoughtful as possible without becoming a doormat, though at times you may feel that way. Itās not permanent. I highly recommend you read/Audiobook these two books which helped me turn things around: āRunning on Emptyā and āRunning on Empty No Moreā. Itās written with a lot of sensitivity to everyone. It has impactful and insightful information to help navigate through our journeys as individuals, partners, spouses, children, and parents.
Nacho the situation. Not your monkeys not your circus. If Iāve learned anything being a step parent, you canāt care or do more than the actual parents do. If they donāt want to handle it then thatās on them.

Bed wetting at 11 as well as the deviant behaviors scream something much deeper than a behavioral deficit. Iād look into ADD or ADHD. Only saying because when I came into my husbands life, his son was the same way, he has ADHD and he was super defensive as well. Being a stepparent isnāt easy but I also donāt think that that nacho method in this situation will help. I stopped going to my husband and became better to my stepson. I urge him to communicate how he feels, and love him unconditionally. Itās been two years. He just turned 12 and had it not been for my approach weād be in the same situation. A little kindness and compassion goes a long way. Heās a totally different person who comes to me with issues instead of letting them build. Iām damn proud, and so is his father. He went from defensive to being on the same page. I wish you the best of luck.
Being a step parent is just hard! I remarried. He had 4 kids. I had 2. 6 months after we married we suddenly got full custody of his 4. It changed everything. 6 kids is a lot. I stayed for 8 years. 8 years too long. Never should have married him.

Well I can guarantee thereās a reason the Husband hasnāt introduced you to the childās Mother. A Step Parents role is to SUPPORT the parent NOT take over ALL the Parenting duties. That is so often the case, Try backing off and demanding HE Parent his child. Itās just as much DADS RESPONSIBILITY to address and do his due diligence to correct his childās bed wetting issues. If You have to STEP UP that much, itās because DAD has sat his ass DOWN! Nope, Try addressing the REAL issues here, DADS lack of participation in Parenting HIS CHILD.
First you need to have a calm but frank conversation with your husband about his son and your concerns. You need a plan of action. This situation will not resolve itself. Start gathering information. Start with his school. His teachers and guidance counselors are usually a wealth of information. It will also indicate you are aware of problems and willing to address them. Let them know going forward to contact you/your husband if problems arise. It is imperative you contact his doctor for a consult. At this pount I the Dr. is aware for the need for counseling or testing for ADHD, ADD etcā¦ The Dr. will be able to evaluate or recommend professionals to help this child.
Hes just a kid and clearly if hes wetting the bed hes having some issues. He probably needs some family therapy and some kindness. Poor kid

Ignore the behavior. Pray for him and out loud. I had a hard time with one of mine. Take him by the hand and pray. Tell Satan to get thee behind you. Tell the demons to flee from this boy now in the mighty name of Jesusā¦Amen. it is a demon attaching themselves to individuals. It is a real thing.
Ooof yāall need to start communicating other wise itās just gonna get more ugly. Good luck to you
As a bed wetting parent your attitude while understandable isnāt going to make that better. Diabetes could be in play as well as sleep apnea. My child simply didnāt rest enough and as soon as we got off the couch and starting doing things to make him tired he would go to sleep much easier and sleep lighter where he would wake up to use the bathroom. I get it heās 11 but youāve got to try a different approach at that aspect

Get that poor kid some help! Take him to the doctorās about his bed wetting, even if you have to go behind your husbandās back and pay out of pocket. Could be a medical problem, could be caused by abuse, could be his only way of feeling in control of something and punishing the adults in his life. Thatās probably a lot of why heās out of control. Show doctorās advice to hubs.
Ask hubs if he had the same problem with bed wetting. Could be he did, felt humiliated, and gives the kid a pass on everything because he remembers how bad it felt.
Ask his teachers how he acts in school/online for any insights, and see if a school counselor can meet with him in person or online.
Next get the kid psychological help. He needs an outlet as it appears dad doesnāt care to be a parent, and there are probably some deep-seated resentments and self-loathing going on. Nip this in the bud before puberty sets in. Again, you may just have to take the initiative. Maybe you can meet with one or more child psychologists to talk about your concerns, then bring your hubs to talk to her/him about whatās going on and what yāall should do.
Then family counseling for all of you. Maybe the counselor can wrangle why the secrecy about the boyās mom.
Look up the mom online to see what you can find out about her. Ask hubsā friends/family whatās going on. If you can elicit any contact information about her, get in touch with her yourself.
Tell hubs heās not doing his kid any favors and gets the kid help now or you will report him to CPS for neglect and abuse and/or divorce him. (Donāt really call CPS until you research what they would/wouldnāt do in the situation; it could turn out badly for everyone.) Have reliable medical/psychological information about kids in his sonās situation to back you up and tell him to read it while you watch. Tell him to think about what you said and let him know you will reconvene in two days to talk about it.
Sounds like all the adults in this kidās life have failed him. Where does dad go to drop off the boy when he visits his mom?
In the meantime, use mattress protectors, have the kid wear diapers (only at night if itās a nighttime problem), make him do his own laundry or at least help.
Spend some one-on-one time with stepson to help you figure out whatās going on with him. Does he have any outside interests? He needs something he can be proud of and where he can have fun, whether itās a sport, the arts, music, scouting, 4-H, a religious institution, etc. where he can make friends and feel included/part of a team. Having other kids at your house or having him spend time at other kidsā houses (after you make sure itās safe) will expand his horizons and see how other kids help out.
Donāt abandon this child to a miserable future, and get him the help he needs with or without his bio parentsā permission. Donāt let him be a āthrowawayā kid if at all possible.

I would definitely suggest a doctor for any underlying health issues.

Oh fuck that id be telling his mother go get F and as for his useless father see ya ā¦
-My 12 year old occasionally wets the bed still and I took him to be checked out several times. At first they told me it was normal even for his age because he does have night terrors and sleeps hard when he finally gets to sleep (insomnia from not wanting to sleep and see the nightmares). I got a second opinion who did an x-ray of his abdomen and found he wasnāt emptying his bowls so he was impacted which pushes on the bladder. So he had to do a round of laxatives to clean him our and then drink extra fiber. Definitely check into impaction.
-Find out WHY the childās mother doesnāt want or push to meet you. Thatās weird. Iād 100% need to have some type of knowledge of whoever is caring for my child.
-Men donāt think or react to things the same way women do. So whatās irritating or important to you, might not be to him. The issue is that he refuses to acknowledge things that are upsetting you and isnāt disciplining his child and seems unhappy with what you do. Thereās no āwinningā that situation. It confuses the kid and makes them act out even more.

Bed wetting isnāt āpissing on everything.ā
You canāt punish a child into not bed wetting. It will do the opposite.
Imagine if someone punished and screamed at you for peeing when you cough, after having a baby.
Itās normal for bed wetting to occur and if you have a neurodivergent child, it can take several years for the body to mature. He could also be a heavy sleeper.
Is he hiding soiled sheets on the floor because he fears punishment?
A simple, āletās get you in a warm bath/shower so youāre feeling better. Throw your clothes/ bedding in the laundry. Hereās an awesome enzyme spray to use on the mattress. Itās ok. Wetting the bed happens. Itās no big deal. Letās get you dry and comfortable.ā
Behavior is a form of communication. Play therapy may be helpful to help get to the root emotions and fears behind it.
Having more positive, one on one time would be beneficial, too.
