.....who financially has a lot more than I have and lives a very different lifestyle to me due to her having in reality a lot more money. We both have children and I never forget her kids birthdays , christmas and regularly get them something small for halloween, easter and when I see them. My sister on the other hand makes a big deal about gifts what she will get kids etc and surprise surprise the gifts often never materialise or arrive on time when something small does arrive. Its not the value or the gift etc but its so obvious she couldn't care less and doesn't even have her kids say thank you. Regularly I can send my goddaughter something for her birthday and I never know if she received it or not. We live a few hours away so I end up posting stuff. My kids often ask me why I spend so much time getting her kids stuff and put thought into it and she never gives my kids the same experience. I know I should just cut the whole gifting down or out. But today one of my kids got her in a family KrisKindle and she text her giving her a list of things she would like. Way above agreed budget too. I just found it really strange that it really is all about her. I really wish I had the courage to stop this gifting and concentrate on my own family.Yip AIBU! I should just cop on and realise this is such a trivial issue and just give without wanting thanks and give for the right reasons!
