Should I Feel Bad??

I live my life feeling bad for DH when it comes to his son. His son lives with us, attends school and does activities. BM has him weekends. All the woman does is spoil the son rotten with toys and concerts and junk food while my husband and I sign him up for sports, do the normal school activies/work and tend to his health like doctor appointments and whatnot. His son always wants to know when he is going with BM and asks to call her. He doesn't ask her when he is with her to call DH or ask when he is coming home. He almost acts as if it sucks to be dropped off to us.

I care but not too bad anymore since I'm pregnant with my first child and stepson is just like his mother and I like it when he isn't home yet DH has raised that kid from day one. Doing everything while BM went off to texas for years and just decided to come back once I was in the picture and she could use kid as a toy. I just feel bad for my husband because it's like his child is being torn from him. It seems that nothing we do matters to the kid.

We as humans have a nature where we arent thankful for what we have till we lose it's he lived with his mom, now with you, it is normal. Just make him happy and lets him know he is loved.
