By jealousy much? - 18/07/2018 19:00

Today, my boyfriend and I announced to my son and his daughter that they'll have a half-sibling soon. His daughter was stunned, and my son disgustedly went: "No! No! NO! Your unemployment and his disability checks aren't even enough to pay for the bills of this house!" He's 14. FML

If what he said is true, what the hell are you thinking having another child?

I mean to be fair, it's not jealousy if he's pointed out anything that's accurate. If it's inaccurate you should assure him of that and assure them both that having a new sibling doesn't mean they mean any less or not enough. Sounds like he's concerned about finances and to a point that a fourteen year old might be ahead of his peers on. Trust me if he's already considering financial burdens he's probably scrutinizing himself harshly about them as well and that can mess you up at that age. Especially if you wind up with a surprise genetic disease that only amplifies your anxiety about that stuff.

So, he feels entitled to entitlements? Those won’t exist after our democracy disappears!

You sound delusional, if you think this a "jealous much" case. Having to grow up in a household where I had to worry about finances from a very young age, I feel bad for your children.

I'd love to hear how your son expressing his concerns about your finances makes him jealous. it is sad when your 14 has his head on his shoulders compared to the adult raising him. I feel bad he is only 14 and worrying about financial issues. No child should have to worry about that.

When I first read this, I thought that the son had a daughter , not that it was the boyfriend’s daughter.

Ummmm....yeah. Sounds like this kid is pretty well grounded, especially at 14. I think his financial maturity offsets your financial immaturity. If you can’t feed ‘em, don’t breed ‘em!

Sounds like your kid is very astute. Its a sad state of affairs when your 14 year old is more worried about your financial situation than yourself.
