Could I get a private post please. How would people handle Christmas. I’ve been with my partner for 12 years we have one child together. His kids are grown up and have kids of their own. I do alot for them all running around and favours. At Christmas time we give them money which they always say their dad…. Not us both… They never buy me or our child anything at Christmas and this year we’re all put for Xmas dinner and doing gifts at the table personally I feel very awkward in this situation as I know full well we won’t receive anything which is fine but a box a chocolates or a selection box isn’t breaking the bank. We always get their partners a gift each. My partner always says they forget about me and our child.

  • Christmas is about giving not receiving but in this case that’s outrageous I would sit through the meal once the gifts have been given out and nothing comes your way I would make my feelings clear and then leave the table with your child and go out for a walk who cares if it starts world war three you will have busted a gut putting that meal in their stomachs time they knew you counted

  • I would personally get your child some gifts and when they don’t give your child anything I’d say ooo I think you’ve all forgotten these and make out they are From the family that way your child doesn’t have to feel awkward but the family can be made an example of that they’ll feel embarrassed and maybe get your husband to get something off them for you xx

  • That’s outrageous! They don’t forget at all, that’s just pure ignorance. I’d like to see their faces if they didn’t receive anything from you and your child. Maybe a point is to be needs to proven, you don’t give to receive but that’s just rude.

  • Think my main issue would be them not buying their sibling something that’s just bad form esp wen they have their own kids

  • Buy you and child a gift, then if no one offers you both a gift you can give each other a gift x
