Ds2 is quite an old 15, he has been seeing his gf for over a year, she is 15 on Saturday. Let's call her Kate.
All the family love Kate, she has had a difficult upbringing and doesn't seem to get on with either of her parents all the time,they have lived apart since she was 6, as have ds's father and me, she is very comfortable here and spends a lot of time at our house. She is clever (predicted A's, she buys her own books to study, she is very driven and determined that she won't end up with no qualifications like her parents), friendly, polite and very pretty. She does however suffer from depression and sometimes self harms.
She hasn't liked either of ds1's girlfriends that have been on the scene in the past year. Ds1 is 18. They all attend the same school which is also a 6th form college. She says that both of the girlfreinds have spread rumours about her. Ds1 has been with his current gf about 4 months, I will call her Laura.
She planned to spend her birthday evening here after spending the day with her mum and I had promised to make her favourite tea for her. Ds1 has now said that him and Laura will be here on Saturday night. Kate is really upset about this, has been sobbing all day that her birthday is going to be ruined. She has told ds2 that she wants to hurt herself she is so upset. Kate and Laura are both usually here with all the family on a Sunday, so it's not as if this is a first.
I refuse to tell Laura not to come as I will not play favourites, dd who is 23 and treats Kate as the sister she has never had has told her that she is being unfair to me.
WWYD?
