How to deal with my stubborn step-mom?

Question

My dad and step-mom moved in with my boyfriend and I because their house burned down from a fire. They've lost most of their belongings but were able to make it out safe. We really felt bad and wanted to help them so we offered them to stay at our apartment until they can sort things out and find a new place.

Things were going great until my step-mom turned into the guest from hell!  

When she gets upset, she slams doors and screams really loud. I've asked her countless times to please be quiet but she just ignores what I have to say and continues to scream and slam doors, pots, pans, anything really. She yells when she argues with my dad on a daily basis. When she watches t.v. she blasts the volume up and when I ask her nicely to turn it down explaining to her that our neighbors are sleeping or my boyfriend has to sleep for work.. she turns the volume down, but then turns it back up when I leave. She doesn't work so my dad has been trying to save up money so that when they find a nice place, he'll have enough for them to move out of our place quickly but lately she's been spending all of his money on these fabulous shopping sprees. You'd think that a tragedy such as a fire would make someone appreciate the basics, like a roof over your head, but NOPE. 

These are just SOME of the incidents that I've gone through with her and she just won't show us any respect. I've never done anything to her, nor has my boyfriend. To be honest we're not really that close to her at all. 

I'm honestly frustrated and scared of getting kicked out because at this point, I'm pretty sure our neighbors hate us. Talking to her nicely just doesn't work because she'll okay, "Oh, okay." and then when our backs are turned, she'll continue to do things her way. What can I do to get her to stop being so loud and rude?

Your step-mom should be thankful and blessed to be in a home. That is incredibly selfish the way she acts. She barges in and next minute does things to piss you off the bat. I mean she should get help. What she is doing is no excuse. She is lucky to be living in a house with food, shelter, and family like you. If she can't control it. How will your relationship turn out in the future? She should get help from a psychologist. You should set some boundaries/rules. That's your home she is living in. Really, tell that women to smarten up and clean her act up. Discipline her. Do whatever it takes to make her change. That is not acceptable in any house holds.

I dont have any ideas in this. The mom used to be doing what used to be within the quality pursuits of the little one. And the little one would had been held again from going to kindy for different explanations and if it used to be as a result of breastfeeding that barely issues. Not all children begin kindy at precisely five yrs ancient so what's mistaken with letting the little one self-wean. And sure ALL toddlers and kids do self-wean whilst they're in a position and no longer a second earlier than. Trust me as a mom that breastfed her kids, you'll NOT drive a little one to breastfeed. So if this little one used to be nonetheless breastfeeding at five yrs of age then she simply wasnt in a position to wean. Its no longer like she will breastfeed her complete lifestyles, she'd have weaned ultimately and each time that used to be it used to be the little one's resolution. The duration of time a mom breastfeeds is dependant at the little one and the moms potential to manage with breastfeeding beyond a special age, as it kind of feels to be the sort of taboo to cotinue breastfeeding beyond a special age. I breastfed my daughters, my eldest for 2yrs whilst she self-weaned and my moment until she used to be three whilst I weaned her as a result of a quantity of elements. I for my part dont see some thing mistaken with letting a little one self-wean without reference to whether or not they're toddlers,babies or chiuldren. But I recognise I couldnt have hacked it. Regardless of the way you or any person else feels the breastfeeding dating among a mom and her little one is her industry and none of yours. And particularly shouldnt outcome you in any respect.

Your father needs to step up and deal with her. And maybe you need to be a little more forgiving also.
