What should I do about my step daughter?

The boyfriend worries me. Sounds like he just wants to control her and use her for the money

Stick it out Dad don’t back down

Have the boy investigated. He has a mental control on her. Get her away from this guy, danger written all over. Have her friends been supportive or left her with him?

Why did you guys tell her that she has the money?

Your spouse is 100% correct. Keep doing what is only right because you know that after she gets her hands on that money her boyfriend will take it all and toss her to the streets once all that money is gone. She needs to learn a lesson but will only learn after she finds herself hitting rock bottom. Seems that her boyfriend cant do no wrong in her world.

I would call the police. She is a minor and her boyfriend is and adult. Don’t just Dangle that info over call police and file report.

Husband is right, don’t give in to her.

Stick with her dads rule sounds like some of that money may have to be returnd

Not your fight, you have to back up your husband

Social security will not allow the money to be saved for future use. Any monies not spent must be returned to social security at the end of each year.

She’s not an adult yet at 17?! I personally would force her to come back home and get back in school with the help of the authorities if necessary. She’s a Teenager not even 18. She should be in therapy - she sounds codependent and her boyfriend abusive. Next thing she’ll be pregnant. She’s ruining her life.

If you withdraw the money, you think you have drama now, wait until your husband finds out you did this and bang! You just blew up your marriage. Its his daughter, let her take you to court

Does anybody think that it’s wrong to keep this kids money that the government provides on behalf of her dead mother? Like the money is to support her. I’m not sure how the Social Security Administration would feel about this. Probably if she contacted them they’d appoint a new payee or possibly even cut her off. It used to be a school requirement for juvenile beneficiaries.

the boy is going to use her
as an ATM,nothing else

Don’t give her the money till she grows up. It will be gone in a week if you do.

No way,a drop out can wait as punishment. Let her take it to court money like that I thought ended anyway when they quit school . Mine did anyway.

Stay out of it…if your name was on it with your husband, that would be different.

Once she turns 18 and isn’t in school she’ll lose SS anyway won’t she?

If it’s CPP she won’t get it past 18 if not in school anyway so there is that. If it’s US I can’t say.

You don’t have the right to do it unfortunately that’s what it boils down to

Let her take ul to court n leave the $$$ n the bank until she turns 18! She might appreciate u more n the long run!:flushed::heart_eyes:

If u give in she will never stick to anything she needs to realise if u don’t play ur part in the game then rules change n u not get wat u want. Giving in only will give u short bit piece n end drama for short time then will come back at u n will no if u keep pressure on the parents will cave n give u wat u want. Tuff luv is only way

Does she really have the money to take you to court?

I would do whatever you need to do legally.
