Its taken me a few hours to sort this out in my own head but I can't so I need to get it off my chest.
I've just taken my kids to see grandparents,these gp's have 4 gc's my kids dad is the dad of 3 of them and another son is dad of the other gc.
My kids half sibling is almost the same age as the cousin.
So 3 have a massive pile of gifts each and not of the cheap just lots type and the cousin has ONE gift. All gifts are from gp's not other people.
Thought this was odd until cousin opened the gift and saw it was a tablet said to myself 'oh that explains it'
But then yet another gift was produced and handed to half sibling and that was also a tablet only a bigger,better branded higher spec one. So not only did one have the massive pile of expensive gifts (about 20ish) but also got a much better tablet than the cousins only gift.
There is no even things up,thing going on as none of the kids are going without elsewhere neither do any have more family who get for them ( well obviously they do have other family but I meant more than each other so its not that the cousin has extra relatives that the others don't have even if they are not the same ones).
On what planet is it ok to do this to a child who is old enough to notice, and why if your going to be a git and do it would you make it so damn obvious if your going to leave one out and have such a huge discrepancy why do it in front of the left out one.
Heartless and cruel. And I'm angry about it even tho the child is not mine.
