I Refused to Share My Son’s Inheritance With My Stepson—My Husband Made Me Pay

He said, “I treated your kid as my son, is this how you thank me?” when I refused. “I’m sorry, but you don’t deserve his money because you raised my son,” I said.

After a minute of silence, he said, “You will not be happy with the outcome!” and I froze.

For the remainder of the evening, we remained silent.

The following day, I noticed that Jeff had a lengthy list on the table. I was surprised. From the time my kid was two years old until now, he had documented all of the costs he had paid for, including clothing, excursions, and outings.

Jeff constantly asserted, “Your kid is mine, there’s no difference,” even though my son’s father paid child support. However, he is now demanding that I return every penny since he is angry at my rejection.

I think this is ridiculous. Giving him a piece of my son’s legi:timate inheritance feels like betraying my child, even if I know he’s sad.

By refusing to cover his college expenses, am I being unjust to my spouse and his son?

Yours,
Lisa
