Hi guys this is my first thread and not sure if this is the right way to go about things but I need some advice..
I've been with my partner for 4 and a half years and in this time I have watched her two children change for children to teenagers.
Her youngest who's 13 has been diagnosed with depression and sits in his room all day playing computer games sometimes up to 18 hours a day but a minimum of 13 hours. He is currently not going to school as the school apparently said he shouldn't be there although nothing has been sorted about how he will continue his education. He has missed a full term so far..
My partner and I have constant arguments because to me it seems she's leaving him to do as he pleases (which in my eyes is reason he has ended up in this position).
I'm watching my partner let her son self destruct because she won't do anything about it and I can't just sit and watch it happen.. I believe she's too proud to admit that she may have made mistakes and also too proud to make changes.
Has anyone been in this situation in any way? Can anyone help me with what as a stepdad i should be doing?
