AIBU to give money I owe my son direct to his stepmum who he owes money too?

DS1 (18) went to his dad & stepmums last night to pick up their spare hoover & brought it back in a taxi because mine had blown up & they offered me their spare one

Taxi cost £15.

He paid for the taxi so now I owe him £15

He has just left to see his girlfriend and hasn't eaten that well today (staying in bed until 2pm ....uni day off) so I said I'll order a pizza to get delivered to you and girlfriend (who is in halls of residence) if you want with some of the money I owe you.

He said No, I owe stepmum £200 so that £15 will go to her. I said 'no problem' I'll just give it directly to Stepmum then.

He went a bit 'stroppy' and wants me to give him the £15 and not stepmum and said 'I will hate you if give it directly to her'

I think he will end up spending it so would I be unreasonable to ignore his request and just give it direct to his Stepmum???

Yes, I do at times like to be succinct. Wink
