Is it right for me to call her my step mom, if my real mom is still alive and I was over 21 when the other woman came into the life of my dad?
Anyway, my sister wakes me up this morning at 1:30am, yelling and foaming at the mouth about a phone conversation she had with Kayla...the offending party. My sister is attending school in Hawaii, and Kayla sent my sister her old Verizon phone to use for calling home. They are on that family plan deal where two verizons can talk free and weekends are also free, as well as after 9pm. Well, they never told my sister when the billing cycle began/ended so she went over what Kayla alloted her for the use of the phone. See...Kayla would let Jackie use the phone free, if she only stayed within the limited details. Well...my sister Jackie went over that on her first month, not even knowing it. My dad talked to her Saturday to clear up the confusion. Well, last night, Kayla called Jackie after my dad had gone to bed and chewed her ass out. She ranted and raved over how much money Jackie was costing her and how bad of a person Jackie is. Typical evil step mother shite.
Jackie called me for advice. I told her that she needed to quit wasting her anger by yelling where nobody can hear. She needed to put that energy to use. I advised her to send the phone back and cut all contact with the woman. My wife added in that Kayla was loving the ability to control Jackie and that she needed to prove to Kayla that she was an independent thinker and free of any necessities the woman might try to hold on her. She also advised the return of the phone and to put her energy to use by proving that she can take care of herself as a grown woman should. My sister is 26.
Now I have a question. Should I take this personal, and also try to sever ties between me and the evil woman, or should I consider this a thing between my sister and her step-mom and they can deal with it.
Should my real mom be let in on this? Should I tell my dad that I do not approve of what happened last night?
I seek advice.
