My stepdaughter, 25, is still \u201cnot ready\u201d to leave her dad\u2019s house. I am 7 months pregnant, and I need her room for my baby; otherwise, he won’t have a place. So I packed her things and said, \u201cGrow up or go find a charity center to take you in! This house isn\u2019t your free hotel anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That night, my husband didn\u2019t come home. I thought he was just mad at me. But then I got a call from my stepdaughter. I froze when I realized that he was with her and that he is going to rent an apartment for her. She sounded so smug as she shared the news, which only made me angrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the past year, I\u2019ve been asking my husband for a bigger house, but he kept saying we couldn\u2019t afford it. I was horrified when I found out that he\u2019s willing to use our savings to pay for an apartment for his adult daughter. She\u2019s 25\u2014old enough to take care of herself\u2014yet she\u2019s still exploiting her dad. That money should be going toward me and the baby, not her rent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What do you think I should do? Am I overreacting, or is my anger justified?
