[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So stop buying him gifts. Also being resentful that his gf, who is a guest, doesn't jump on kitchen duty. So so tired of any female in attendance at a holiday meal like be expected to also work the kitchen while the men, whether guest or family, relax and watch other men throw a ball up and down. [/quote] +1 Stop buying gifts. Let dad do that. This same dynamic happened with my in-laws. Stepmom in law complained to me that one SS brought nothing but opened gifts with the other adult siblings whoDID bring gifts. He said he doesn’t know how topick out gifts :roll: Bring wine or candy. Not that hard. I actually agreed with her but there’s no way his dad was going to say anything. He already had a damaged relationship with son due to divorce. Thankfully stepmom didn’t say anything either. Eventually SS got married and wife did the gift giving. Not that it should fall on the wife but that’s how it resolved in this case. [/quote]
