Nowadays, there are hundreds of different ways to make up a family. As long as there’s plenty of love present, it makes no difference whether you have one parent or four (including your stepparents). But although it’s perfectly fine for adults to find love again and again, it won’t necessarily be easy for their children to adjust to having someone new around.

One woman recently shared a story on Reddit detailing how her last relationship ended because of her ex’s daughter’s behavior. But now, the teen is reaching out to her for help, and she’s not having it.

    But now, the teen has realized that she hates her dad’s new partner even more

    It’s common for teens to have complicated feelings about their parents entering new relationships

    Even if your parents have been divorced for a decade, which is the case for the teen in this story, it can still be challenging to accept that there’s someone new in one of your parents’ lives. According to Hidden Strength, when a teen resents the new partner of one of their parent’s, it’s possible that their resistance to change isn’t personal.

    It might actually be coming from a fear that their parent is pushing them away or trying to replace them. They might also be jealous of how much time their parent is now spending with this romantic partner. And it’s possible that they feel bad for their other parent, if they assume that they’ve been left behind or forgotten.

    Teens sometimes also find it embarrassing or gross that their parent would be dating and trying to find love again. And, in some cases, there might actually be something specific about the partner that they don’t like. And, of course, if the new partner doesn’t like the teen, the feeling will likely go both ways.

    However, Hidden Strength notes that seeing a parent start dating someone new is not a valid excuse for bad behavior. If the teen is being hostile or acting out, it’s important for their parent to address it immediately. It’s recommended for the parent to ask their child what exactly is bothering them and how they can work together to find a solution.

    Parents should make sure that their children are comfortable before bringing someone new into their lives

    And when it comes to helping a child or teen accept a new partner who they’re not particularly fond of at first, Sydney Couple & Family Specialists recommends making sure that the hierarchy in the family is clear. Your child should always show respect to you and your partner, even if they’re not happy with the new arrangement yet.

    It can also be helpful to encourage the new partner to get involved in activities like household chores and household traditions. This might make the child or teen view them more as part of the family, rather than a stranger in their home. 

    ADVERTISEMENT

    If it’s necessary to discipline your child, try to do so one-on-one, without your new partner around. They might feel like they’re being ganged up on if the two of you are present when this happens. 

    And the child or teen should always have their own safe space in the home. Their bedroom, a playroom or an upstairs space away from the rest of the home can be incredibly helpful if they feel overwhelmed and need to be alone. They should have somewhere they can go to process their emotions without worrying about someone barging in at any moment.

    It’s important not to rush the process of having your child open up to a new partner. They might be feeling a complicated mix of emotions, and it’s completely natural to take time to adjust to any sort of life change.

    karma. She FAFO with daddies girlfriends, and now she has to face consecuences. OP has no reason to help her at all. She isn't a "kid" as so many posters keep claiming. She is 16, in many parts of the world that is a legal adult, that can drink alcohol, drive, and even vote in some countries. The infantilization of teenagers in the US is astonishing.

    You've made me laugh so much!!! Do you really think you can get a restraining order just because a person turns up a couple of times anywhere near you? Unless he is abusive or does something dangerous or intimidating he is free to go wherever he wants to. Nobody would take you seriously if you went to the police with such an idiotic story. Educate yourself and let people who really know what they are talking about give legal advice.

    OP is SO NTA. Tia is learning that you can't sow dandelions and expect to reap strawberries. Her nasty, abusive behavior drove her dad's first girlfriend away. Now she's dealing with someone who don't play that shìt, that is a living example of Newton's 3rd Law of Motion, and is it ever glorious to behold! (Before everyone condemns the new girlfriend to hell, consider this: it's possible that she has dealt with this scenario her entire life, one way or another. Her method seems to work best.) Daddy Dearest needs to stop thinking with his gonads and start behaving like a--GASP!--parent. Tia is liable to do something really off the wall, like borrow her father's car without permission or go out of her way to physically hurt someone. That girl is burning bridges, and her father is providing the gasoline and torches. OP is justified in avoiding Tia like the Plague; it would only be a matter of time before Tia and her father's apathy would destroy OP.

    NTA, but totally missed a prime opportunity to possibly teach another human a valuable lesson. The people saying she is an entitled brat are totally correct. That child did not choose to be raised that way. There is no fault in the person not caring to explain, but no one else seems to be getting through.

    Kid's just an a-hole who wants to drive every woman away from daddy so she can have him all to herself. She needed physical reprimanding as she was being raised, giving her this much leeway has turned her into a little c*nt who severely needs punched. I'd file a restraining order on her for extra effect for coming to my workplace. Little psycho. Her father also needs a punch for being a piece of sh*t of a parent and partner. OP's better off not knowing them. Good on Jane the new GF for being as much of a b*tch back to the kid, that's what the kid needs, put in her damn place.

    Definitely sounds like OP has PTSD. I'm glad she's already got a therapist and has this on her radar. People don't realize how psychologically damaging chronic emotional abuse can be, even when it's coming from a kid. I hope Tia learns something from her FAFO experience.

    I’m absolutely shocked that this father introduced another woman to his already screwed up daughter!?? This father HAS to or MUST get help for Tia. What TF is wrong with him that he’s not seeing that he’s daughter needs help? It doesn’t sound like he even put up a fight for someone he loved! How can this sorry excuse of a man not ask himself why his daughter is behaving this way? NO!!! He goes to sleep without a thought and eight weeks after this break up, he introduces ANOTHER girlfriend 🤦‍♀️ It’s not Tia who’s the problem, it HER DAD! She’s was being hostile and has hatred in her, but her Dad is the reason she’s not of sound mind!! This is disturbing and Tia needs serious mental health help!!!!!!

    As is usually the case this is just another person seeking attention because there is no real debate about her being an AH. I highly doubt the sister told her she was an AH for not supporting an evil teen she has almost no connection with and absolutely no responsibility for. Secondly, I like Jane and she sounds awesome! It's a completely toxic relationship she is in with the ex-bf, but I love her handling of the fucktard teen.

    She is a teenager, she has to take the consequences of her behaviour BUT also she is just a teenager who needs someone to talk to. Even if she don't derserves your time, just listen. You don't have to give any advise or a solution, just let her calm down and it is up to her dad to find a solution.

OP is justified in avoiding Tia like the Plague; it would only be a matter of time before Tia and her father's apathy would destroy OP.

    Frankly, I'd be happy if somebody beat the c**p out of the vicious b***h.

    NTA, but totally missed a prime opportunity to possibly teach another human a valuable lesson. The people saying she is an entitled brat are totally correct. That child did not choose to be raised that way. There is no fault in the person not caring to explain, but no one else seems to be getting through.

    Kid's just an a-hole who wants to drive every woman away from daddy so she can have him all to herself. She needed physical reprimanding as she was being raised, giving her this much leeway has turned her into a little c*nt who severely needs punched. I'd file a restraining order on her for extra effect for coming to my workplace. Little psycho. Her father also needs a punch for being a piece of sh*t of a parent and partner. OP's better off not knowing them. Good on Jane the new GF for being as much of a b*tch back to the kid, that's what the kid needs, put in her damn place.

    Definitely sounds like OP has PTSD. I'm glad she's already got a therapist and has this on her radar. People don't realize how psychologically damaging chronic emotional abuse can be, even when it's coming from a kid. I hope Tia learns something from her FAFO experience.

    I’m absolutely shocked that this father introduced another woman to his already screwed up daughter!?? This father HAS to or MUST get help for Tia. What TF is wrong with him that he’s not seeing that he’s daughter needs help? It doesn’t sound like he even put up a fight for someone he loved! How can this sorry excuse of a man not ask himself why his daughter is behaving this way? NO!!! He goes to sleep without a thought and eight weeks after this break up, he introduces ANOTHER girlfriend 🤦‍♀️ It’s not Tia who’s the problem, it HER DAD! She’s was being hostile and has hatred in her, but her Dad is the reason she’s not of sound mind!! This is disturbing and Tia needs serious mental health help!!!!!!

    Tia is hurting? Ohhhhhh, I'm sooooo soooorry. That's exactly what she deserves. She's not a kid. It's high time she learnt actions have consequences. She's only hurting because she can't manipulate daddy's new girlfriend. She sounds like an entitled brat.

    What about what’s happened throughout her life? The dad just introduced another “f**k buddy” within eight weeks without dealing with his daughter. Somethings not right and he took his daughter to the ex because she’s everyone else’s problem and not his🤷‍♀️ you’re all f***ed in the head that you’re not judging daddy dearest!!! Idiots

    It's time Tia learns that you get what you put out there.

    As is usually the case this is just another person seeking attention because there is no real debate about her being an AH. I highly doubt the sister told her she was an AH for not supporting an evil teen she has almost no connection with and absolutely no responsibility for. Secondly, I like Jane and she sounds awesome! It's a completely toxic relationship she is in with the ex-bf, but I love her handling of the fucktard teen.

    This really reads like fiction. I like the Jane character, though. Downvoted due to the YTA stupidity

    Most of the “AITA” on Reddit are fiction. People starved for upvotes, or just AI

    She is a teenager, she has to take the consequences of her behaviour BUT also she is just a teenager who needs someone to talk to. Even if she don't derserves your time, just listen. You don't have to give any advise or a solution, just let her calm down and it is up to her dad to find a solution.
