Long story short. My mother has been living in Louisiana with her husband and his son for the past 5 years. They recently had a baby about a year ago. Now she is moving back with her child to our home state, FL, with her husband. And they are leaving her stepson/ his son, with his in/ out of rehab relapsing mother that he only sees twice a month. My mother wants to rekindle the relationship she had with my sister who loves in FL, whom she left to move to lousiana after my parents split. I tried to tell her that she’s abandoning another child if they decide to do fhat and how heartbreaking it’s going to be for the child (who is 8 and has always been with his father). The boy sometimes doesn’t listen and says “you’re not my mother..etc” but is such a loving kid and let’s be honest, she isn’t nurturing at all to him. But she says he’s not her priority and I think she should have thought about fhat before she left and committed to a new family. It breaks my heart to think this kid is going to be hurting and broken. Am I overreacting? Should a stepmom not be this involved? Should a father be willing to leave him with his crack addict mother while they run off to Florida?
