I encourage you to stick with whatever conditions or limits you and your husband feel is appropriate and decide to make upfront (be it some amount of rent, chores, seeking out school/work). Also you mentioned that there are addiction issues. With that in mind, it could be helpful for you to attend a couple of alanon meetings just to get a better sense of how deeply powerful addiction can be and ways for you and your family to continue to be supportive, yet firm about the ways in which you can help him that will promote sobriety, personal responsibility, and healing.
Good luck to you!

seattle-reloParticipantA friend of mine and her husband (who also has a teenage son from a previous marriage) have had the same type of issues regarding inheritance, property, etc…so what they did was had the husband take out a seperate life insurance policy where his son is the only beneficiary to address the husband wanting to make sure his son got some inheritance and the wife to feel comfortable about her future if he should die before her. I recommend you speak with an attorney, since blended marriages are not at all uncommon these days, I would bet that an experienced attorney would have some creative solutions.
