I have known my stepfather for 7 years (I’m 15) we have always had a large personality clash, but we can get along really well sometimes and that is really lovely.
It just seems that if my mum and me have a small argument he will step in and make it 100% worse by making me really angry and twisting it so my mum see’s it in a much worse way.
I also have two younger siblings, one is his and the other is his stepson. Both of them show to me really obviously that they favour them and it knocks my self confidence badly.
I just want things to be okay again, and I’m not being unrealistic and asking for everything to be fabulous, I just don’t want to always be feeling like this.
Thanks. E.

Communication is the key here. Sitting down with them and letting them know how you feel CALMLY. Your folks shouldn’t be making you feel that way and they need to be told. If you feel like your temper is getting the best of you tell them you need a few to calm. Another important factor is admitting where you may be some of the problem as well. Are they really favoring your siblings? Your hurt feeling may be helping you to see things that aren’t there. If you do not feel that you can sit and talk things out with them it will only get worse and you may need to seek outside help. Good luck.
