I know this is inane and insignificant, but you guys have helped a lot when it comes to my role as a relatively new stepdad to teen (well, now 19) stepdtrs. But I'll share a recent development.

Both went off to college, college chosen in no smal part by where their bf's were going. As expected, cracks in these high school romances developed...hey, that's a part of life. One of them has been unhappy with her beau for a few months...it came to a head when he told her they were officially breaking up and for her to get her stuff out of his apartment. Now bf is devastated and vascillates between wanting her back and despising her.

Last night he was so distraught his mother (mind you this kid is 20-21) drove 2 1/2 hours to campus to pick her devastated son up and bring him home. Weird enough...but then mom texts my stepdtr and informs her that she is to leave every gift she received from them (specifically a watch and some high dollar boots/purse) for her b'day/xmas. And then proceeds to get on Facebook and slams stepdtr all over the internet.

Sheesh. What a buncha drama queens...
