19-year-old son expects dad's girlfriend to pay for his vacation after treating her and her 15-year-old daughter with hostility for the 3 years his dad has been with her: 'You’re not my family. You never will be. [D]on’t expect anything from me'

When you've done nothing but be unkind to someone, it might be best not to expect them to go out of their way for you or support you financially, or give you anything really. Sure, there are exceptions to this and by no means is this a hard and fast rule, if they're your own parents and you're a child or a moody teenager, your parents leaving you high and dry and without support just because you've been kind of a grumpy dolt would be the wrong thing to do.

This mother has been at odds with her boyfriend's son since she first started dating his father. Even though she wasn't even in the picture when his parents split, he has seemingly projected the blame for their separation, and his frustration attached to it, onto her. This misplaced anger meant that he was always hostile towards her over the three years that her and his father had been together. Even when the teen's father moved in with her and her 15-year-old daughter, he continued to be unfriendly and dismissive, even insulting her under her own roof. Now, he is blackmailing her with the opportunity to "fix" their relationship by paying for his flight for a family holiday, which is the last thing she feels like doing…
