We have been non contact for the last two years and my partner has never got along with her. She can be very manipulative and uses her daughter as emotional blackmail. In the ten years my partner and I have been together they have never really had that brother/sister relationship.
we have never brought for the daughter except for the first year which was entirely on my behalf
About two years ago things got a bit awkward as mil insisted that we should buy for her at Christmas we firmly told her no and mil stopped talking to us for about 6 months as we are cruel.
I understand that its not fair to take it out on the child but my partner really wants nothing to do with his sister.
Recently his mum has asked if we could buy a present for her as we are the only family she has, which is making me feel bad, but my partner is hellbent on not giving her anything.
