[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. That’s a lot of money! We definitely overdo Xmas, but it still works out to less than $900/kid![/quote] Sorry if I was unclear - DH and I spent about $900 total - so bt &400-450 per kid. AND they will get $1k worth of stuff from their mom. [b]It makes me sick to think about it, especially how little gratitude they seem able to muster.[/b][/quote] You are a nightmare stepmother. The resentment you have for those kids is oozing out all over the place. [/quote] Yeah, OP, you have to be really careful and reconsider your attitude. They don’t owe you ‘thank you!’ You give gifts and take kids to movies because it brings you joy to spend time with them. Right??!! Maybe they are spoiled, it’s impossible for us to tell over the internet. If this is the case, then spend more time with them but buy less. Families don’t have to thank each other for every little thing. [/quote]
