No. He’s not 10 yrs old he’s 19. He needs to grow up and put things right.

NTA, he’s an adult - he’s being manipulative, you’ll have a better trip without him anyway.

NTA, but not the brightest bulb either. If the person your dating a child is so bad towards you that your close to breaking up and YOU had to orchestrate the dad to set boundaries for his child that relationship was doomed from the start. The father should have done that on his own without you prompting him to.

He’s not a child and if he keeps on the way, he is if you haven’t already gone on the trip with the boyfriend tell a boyfriend stay home with him. You don’t need him. Be careful girl.

Crazy Hats & Stories :
nah if the step kid has "aged out" and still having a bad relationship with the step parent then the step parent doesn't owe them any kind of parental relationship and vice versa

Lol NTA. Tell Ethan it can be his way of paying for the vandalism and whatever other damages he’s done. Also 19 years old and not working? Sounds like he has more issues he isn’t working on and just wants all the financial benefits of his stepmom and not an actual relationship

He’s not a minor child, he’s an adult! He can figure out how to pay to go on the trip if he wants to go! It’s not OPs responsibility especially when he’s made it clear tgst he wants nothing to do with her.

Error 404🍉 :
the wild part about all this is Ethan is also an adult. A young adult but an adult. He needs to grow up. His dad also needs to grow up. Should've told him that "expect nothing from me" goes both ways in the real world. As an adult, few people will beg you to build a relationship after you've told them you want nothing to do with them and actively ignored them in their own home.

A 19yo is an ADULT. He needs to work and pay himself if he wants to go anywhere.

Sounds like he's bribing you and guilting you for a trip after no intentions of getting to know you. His father can pay his way if he isn't going to intervene. It's not like you broke up a family.

andi.the.alchemist :
Leave Mark, if Mark thinks you should bow to his son after everything he has done to you then Mark will always enable and try to justify his behavior. Ethan is an adult male and the verbal harrassment and even the damage to property at any age is out of line. Your partner has yet to prioritize you when you literally didn't nothing wrong

Nope. Do not reward poor behavior. Boundaries were set, stick to them.

It could be a start but that would be grace not an expectation. But I’m stuck on why can’t dad ?

It might be nice to be the better person as the adult/step-parent, but not TA for not doing it.

Ethan set a boundary and the adult respected it…. Seems pretty simple to me
