I 31 F been with my boyfriend 34M for almost 8 years. Him and I have two kids 5M & 1F. He has a child from a previous marriage 12M
I recently got an inheritance of 5 hundred thousand dollars. I put a college fund 25k each away for each of our kids 5m & 1F. But I didn’t put aside for my stepson 12M. My boyfriend isn’t upset due to what my stepson has done. My stepson has told lies about, examples: telling his mom I am calling him names and always cursing at him, I always take away his electronics out of his hands, I keep hitting him, throwing stuff at him. My bf and I would have sex in front of him and make him watch. I make him watch my kids so I can go in my room and sleep. (I am a stay at home mom & bf works full time) my step son has even gone as far and told his teacher I touched him inappropriately. The police got involved. I got arrested and interrogated. Well when he said it happened I wasn’t even in town. And his story kept changing. Thankfully charges got dropped and I got let go. I could prove he was lying. Well to my rescue I turned over ALL footage we had to our house. 😂 We have cameras every where, the only place we don’t is in the bathroom. So front of the house, back of the house, in each bedroom, hall, family room, kitchen, garage all have cameras. My bf was telling his friend about the college fund because we were struggling for a while. A family member that heard told off my bf. My bf simply said “it wasn’t his money and I can’t make her do any thing with it. I don’t blame her not wanting to” That family member belittled me, called me every name in the book, screamed bloody murder at me. I simply said “if you have the money you can give him it for college because I am not at all. He doesn’t deserve the money after everything he has put me through.”
That family member told the whole family and now they are split. AITA for not giving my stepson any money for college?
NTA. Your partner sounds like a keeper because they had your back.
