Stepsisters hide 18-year-old's passport so she would miss the family vacation and take care of the kids, father retaliates by cancelling the whole trip: 'I was livid'

There is a lot of irresponsible parenting in this story. First, let's start with the stepsisters in question.

Sure, kids make mistakes, but some kids know exactly what they're doing. This 16-year-old, Sean , had a habit of playing innocent pranks on his stepfather, which were mostly allowed as long as they were minor and playful.
