Firstly, I always buy for the kids in the family. Always.
However DHs sister has never, ever even bought a 20p card factory card for any of my kids.
I've got 4 and my eldest is 8.
In that time shes never even rang to say happy birthday (DHs other sister is exactly the same)
They bothe live in far away areas but last year they were both staying with MIL when it was DSs birthday .... MIL came with DSs card and presents from her but both aunties stayed at her house and didn't bother to come see him.
So now she has a son of her own, 18 months and its coming upto his first xmas here and his birthday soon after. Shes gushing about it all and as BAD as I feel because I buy for all the kids on MY families side,
AIBU to not get him anything?
Should I tell her the reason why? or just not do it?
