That’s very rude. My husband was once shocked I got my stepdaughter a present for our holiday in addition to clothes and he said. What? The clothes are the gift and I’m like no. Clothes are clothes. She deserves a gift. I’m sorry you’re going through this. It’s hard being in the stepmom role.
@bri🤍 he thinks waking up to the excitement of opening up a ton of presents is a kids dream so I know he means well but I was raised very different and I think spending so much on things that kids don’t need is wild to me . I hate the whole materialistic aspect of going overboard on everything
@Rema yea I’m not sure what to even say because he’s made the comment a couple of times
I would suggest a gift-free Christmas. Mostly as a negotiating tactic. That way he feels somewhere in the middle is a win/compromise. 🙄
That’s wild. The Disney trip alone is enough to be grateful for! Plus the vanity…. He’s crazy.
He can purchase whatever else he thinks she should have.
That’s nuts lol. He was being very rude. What does he want to instill for his daughter? This is exactly what I’m trying to raise my kids not to have- a living room full of gifts. It’s unrealistic and over the top to keep up with every year. A few gifts is plenty and more than other some children see in a year. I think your gifts were great and a Disney trip in itself is an amazing gift.
