no real need to read it, but basically its about when people decide to give all siblings the same attention all the time,,even on special days like birth days now, I have two kids and different dads,, I would never expect my daughters father to buy for my son and never expect my sons father to buy for my daughter however,,,I have a brother whose daughter had a mom who insisted he not send his daughter anything without also sending something for her sister, who was not his I thought this was bonkers! do you feel people should do the same for all siblings,,,? |

however,,,I have a brother whose daughter had a mom who insisted he not send his daughter anything without also sending something for her sister, who was not his I thought this was bonkers! do you feel people should do the same for all siblings,,,? Um, your brothers ex, (mother of his child) is crazy but I might speculate there could be alternate motives there. Such as just getting more material items for her other kids and also to punish your brother and try and control in in some fashion. But not knowing all the details that is just a potential possibility. If it is a birthday or a special occasion, only that person should receive gifts. Otherwise what are you teaching the kids whose birthday or special day it is not? That when anyone gets anything, they get something too... That is sooooo dangerous. |

Without knowing the details of your relationships it's hard to opine here. If Your "second" dad was living with you for an extended time and cared for your "first child"(by the first dad)like a family unit then I'd say it is proper to give gifts to both children because although the "first child" isn't his, he should have treated and loved this child as a stepchild and a part of you. |

yes
understood this is not a situation where the person ever lived with(was responsible for) the other child I mean relatives, friends, or other parents of the other children She had two fathers for her two kids, neither ever lived with her , and she got child support from both and insisted they both send things for both her kids,,, |

She had two fathers for her two kids, neither ever lived with her , and she got child support from both and insisted they both send things for both her kids,,, Well I guess she can ask....but that sounds a bit self serving and maybe she wants to make up for her own lack of giving? |
