My dad passed away a little over 2 years ago , and a week after my mom said she add a boyfriend and that we where going to move in whit him. I don't really accept him because personally he's so strict and talks to me and brother like we are the worst kids in the world... So today at diner he was talking about why I didn't like the picture he tagged me on Facebook. He was looking kind of mad about that... He raised is voice and said to show more respect to adults... Later on he was going back to work ,he said bye and I didn't reply so he said to me good now your going to say you hate your life because I'm going to make it hell!! WHAT SHOULD I DO... please help...

How old are you. What does your mother say or does he act like that only when she doesn't see?

Speak respectful to him, even if you do not want to. It looks like he is on face book, tagging your photo's, and showing interest in you. I would ask, why are you not trying to at least accept what he is doing.

He thinks you are being disrespectful because you don't 'like' a picture he's tagged you in? I find that a little weird.

While I think it may be hard to accept a new 'dad' in the picture only a week after your father passed away, perhaps there is more to this story.

Knowing how old you are, would be helpful in offering advice.

Hi I'm 19 and I went through the same thing but I was being beaten by my mums boyfriend when she wasn't around, If he is doing it when your mum isn't around tell her about what he is doing to you and your brother
How old are you? Could you move out. I moved in with my boyfriend and social services got involved and the police 2 times till my mum left him.

You are making assumptions regarding this post. OP stated nothing about physical abuse.

We don't know the whole story here and until we do would never offer this type of input. That was YOUR situation.

You should do nothing. He appears frustrated with your attitude, and quite frankly yes, you should be showing more respect. You should be happy your mom has found someone who cares.

How old are you?

You don't have to like him, but you need to respect the fact that your mother chose to be with him. You need to talk to your mother when you are alone. Try to summarize your feelings, rather than go on and on about little things (without know how old you are, it's hard to suggest ways to get your thoughts and feelings out). My second bit of advice is to say hello, goodbye, and a few other polite things just to calm the waters. And THEN steer clear, don't argue, and don't complain until you have one really important complaint. He doesn't sound so great if he gets angry that you didn't like a picture he tagged, but why did you even bring up something that was just going to cause trouble? The two of you are acting like little kids. Like I suggested - talk to your mother.
