How does one deal with an intruding step parent? Im only back at my dads house for the summer and I'm taking classes that last from 7 am to 5pm at our local Community College. Today when I got home from class I saw an application that I had sitting IN my desk out in the open and not in my room anymore. Now I already know I'm going to get a once over from my dad since one of his arrangements was for me to find a summer job, which is really hard considering there are about 20 businesses in this town that hire and there are now 2000+ high school students flooding the job market. So how do I deal with the fact that while i am gone for the day my room is open to the prying eyes of my step mom and her persistent war against me and all I am. Quite seriously though, she thinks this is a war and that I'm out to get her or something.

Any help would be most appreciated.

My parents are together so I never dealt. With something like this. Maybe talk to your dad. Or confront your step mother and scream at her, if anyone did that to me I would be incredibly pissed

Is there any possiblity to lock your desk and places containing your property?

The whole screaming at her thing has gotten me kicked out before. There have even been fights where I'm doing something like washing dishes and she disagrees with how I soap them up or something and my dad would get mad at me for not conforming to her will. My dad's

and he doesn't seem to recognize when I'm not trying to argue.

On a side note... You know we don't have a cat smiley :/
