Stepmom insists 16-year-old stepson is needed for babysitting his half-siblings while his dad is out of town for 3 weeks out of the month: 'I never wanted to be there when dad wasn't'

The teen in this story is following in his brother's footsteps. After they turned 14 and were no longer mandated by the courts to see their dad's family, they stopped coming over to visit. Despite the loud and clear messaging from this family, their dad's wife still expects them to step up for her kids.
