Dear Carolyn: My stepdaughter is 17 and came to live with us after her mother kicked her out (and then her mom moved across the country and has pretty much cut ties). She’s a troubled kid. Her mom is totally self-involved to the point of neglect. Her dad, my husband, has been away often for the military in places where communication is difficult. They divorced when the kid was 13.
