[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t totally understand how everyone is related but I’ll say: - I don’t handle H’s side of the family when it comes to cards/gifts/birthdays/Christmas/whatever. Saves a ton of drama and my own time and sanity. - No one in my family gets gifts for my step kids (H’s kids). No one in H’s family gets gifts for my kids (so H’s step kids). - H and I have a kid together and inequity hasn’t been a problem since our kids from previous marriage also have tons of extended family that gives them gifts. But if it were, we would take it on ourselves to even things out rather than expect our extended families to. - I stay out of H’s family drama and he stays out of mine. [b]If a kid said this to me, I’d laugh, file it under “kids say the darndest things”, and move on with my life. If kid’s parents had an issue with our gift, I’d let H handle it. Not my business.[/b] [/quote] This is how DH thought of it, until I told him it was a bit rude. [/quote]
