Stepmom considers divorcing her husband because his 13-year-old daughter despises their 4-month-old baby: 'She will scream that he is not her brother'

Teenagers are known to act out for seemingly irrational reasons. Grown-ups constantly muse over the vacillating emotional state of the average 13-year-old, but they often forget what it was actually like to be 13. Young teens don't act out because they enjoy making their parents miserable but because they themselves are genuinely miserable and don't know how to deal with it. Adults can hide their sadness from their coworkers much easier than teens can from their parents. Not to mention, if you're under 18, you have significantly less control over the trajectory of your life than you do as an adult.

What do you do when a teen's unchecked emotions impact not only their happiness but also the happiness of their entire family? How do you solve a kid's problems they don't want to solve? Can you just throw in the towel on a family? Those questions are incredibly relevant to this recent viral Reddit post.
