Step mum problems

Me again I have another dilemma about my 15yo stepdaughter Now the Santa thing got resolved I need some advice about something else. We went out for dinner last night and she had done a SHEIN order so I was paying for it for her I didn’t actually look at the order as there was 34 items but I noticed the last item was a belly button piercing kit (no idea how they’re allowed to sell these things) Now I can’t stop thinking about it. I’m worried she’s going to do it and it could get infected and then I will feel guilty because I knew AND we paid for it. I wanted to say to my husband about if her mum was happy could we not get it for part of her Christmas present done professionally but I feel like I’m now going behind her back or feel like maybe she would think I was being nosey. We actually have no contact with her mum they’ve not had a good relationship for a while so it’s kept between him and his daughter. So much so we don’t even know where they live anymore as she moved and won’t say he picks her up from a pick up point. He unfortunately has no parental rights because he was never put on the birth certificate. I was 15 when I had my belly button pierced so I can’t see the issue but I’m also not her mum so I don’t have an opinion. I just know she won’t care if she’s told no she will do it herself (she did her nose- her mum did rip this out however)

Clicked ignore by accident sorry 🤦‍♀️

Haha it’s ok I have actually mentioned it to my husband now. His response well she will learn the hard way 🫣 it’s getting delivered to ours so I think I’m going to suggest if it’s something she wants we can ask her mum and get it done professionally 😅 I don’t like the response she will learn the hard way 😂

I would absolutely talk to your husband. Especially if your step daughter tries to do it herself and her mom finds out. I’m very concerned by the fact her mom ripped out her nose ring. I think getting it professionally done will be better at avoiding infection and let your step daughter know she can trust you and dad with asking for things like this because clearly she doesn’t have a safe space with her mom.

I would take it out of the package when it gets there. I would absolutely not allow her or provide her with the tools to do it herself.

You should be able to talk to your husband about anything and everything

@Natalie I can indeed however it’s also caused arguments in the past that I shouldn’t get involved. He can’t even say alot but I’m definitely going to advise her however even if we say no she will do it. We’ve taken vapes etc she still finds a way. We don’t really have much of a say even though it’s her dad her mum has all the control

Id talk to your husband & talk to her directly, like intercept the package & take the needles out and talk about it, and say you had gotten yours done at 15, so your on her side for asking to get it done professionally, so there’s no mistakes or misaligned placements or lawsuits (if she god forbid got friends involved with the kits)

Yeah I’d just get that part out of the package and hold it in your hands and say, no way I’m letting less than 5$ jewelry go into your body. I will advocate for you to get it done professionally so you don’t go into sepsis (:

Does your husband have the mums number? Maybe he should message her. It's a sticky situation.. cos yu don't want her doing it without saying and it then falls on you .. like yu knew and supported

Nope he doesn’t he’s emailed her in the past if he can’t get through to his daughter (usually had her phone taken off) it’s really not been a great relationship since covid and he turned up because she blocked all contact and called the police on him. She won’t let him know where they live or her phone number. So all contact is through him and his daughter. He has now said when she’s here at the weekend he will say he see it when he quickly looked and he took some time to think about what he see before mentioning it and that I will take her if mum agrees (he won’t take her because he will probably pass out) and he will ask for her to call on her phone. I don’t think her package will be here by this weekend but will be for next time and we will take it out either way.
