AITAH for not treating my stepdaughter like my daughter because I’m “not her dad”?
I got married to my wife back in February, we both have one teen daughter each from our previous relationships who we have 50/50 custody of both of them, we have them both in the same week so one week we have two teens and the next is just the two of us which is nice. We have had a couple of issues so far with parenting our kids, multiple times now when I try to parent my stepdaughter my wife comes in screaming that I’m not her dad so I don’t get to punish her, the last time this happened was a few weeks ago, she just got her license a few months ago and at night she sneaked out with my car while we were all sleeping and she crashed into a railing, the front bumper was falling off and the entire passenger side was scratched and dented, I’m not from the us but it stayed 5 days in the shop and It costed the equivalent of over 2500 dollars, I was fucking pissed, again her mom defended her saying I’m not her dad, I said you know what fine I’m not her dad, so this year for Christmas I got my actual daughter a whole load of Christmas gifts and not a single thing for her, both her and her mom were pissed and hurt, she asked me why I did that and I told her that she’s not my daughter and she already cost me over 2 grand so she’s not getting anything from me. Now they’re both pissed and my wife isn’t even sleeping in our bedroom.
Am I in the wrong and just being petty or was I justified here?
