First of all it’s your son and it’s not your boyfriends place to say if you can or can’t go all out. You can spoil your kid as much as you want until your boyfriend becomes your husband then he can have a say so that’s what I would tell mine.

Is he your sons father? No. Is he your husband and paying the bill? No. One can still teach the real meaning of Easter, and still have fun with it too! I say do you. Your son is #1… boyfriend is #2. Sorry…his permission is not needed.

Girl what … He isn’t the parent that needs to know his place.
It’s none of his business. He doesn’t get to tell you how to handle your child. Honestly, who does this guy think he is? I hope you don’t give in to him. If you do, that’s the way it will always be and don’t think that your son won’t know that.

Go all out girl because these times go so fast. Enjoy going the extra mile for YOUR child. They remember those times when they get older.

You do not change your parenting for a partner. Unless it’s for the better. This is harmless and would cause confusion if not some emotional distress if all a sudden he went from being spoiled to not. He may think you are starting to love this man more than him and this may grow into larger problems in the future. If he does not have children, do not allow him to tell you what needs to be changed in your parenting. Buy that boy even more stuff this year than you did last!!

Tell him to kick rocks…thats your child, who tf is he besides a live in piece of ass??
Well I agree with him that Easter is not a second christmas. I buy by children a few inexpensive toys/movies, some candy, something fun etc. But I personally dont believe in going all out. But that is MY belief. If YOU enjoy/belief different, you do you girl. No judgement. My kids have everything they need. I buy for my kids on and off throughout the year and some people choose to go all out and only get things on holidays. Ultimately is this his child? Are you spending HIS money? If both are no, in my opinion, he is welcome to VOICE his opinion in a respectful manner, but its your decision.

Get rid of the boyfriend - not his kid.
Do NOT adjust what your child and your traditions are! Your kids will remember those traditions when they are adults and they will do them for your grand babies. Do not EVER change that because a man says it’s too much when he isn’t around for the first years. It’s not their call it’s yours. I will never allow a man to tell me what I cannot do for my babies.

RUN GIRL RUN and don’t look back
While I agree with him it’s not his child and he has zero say unless that puts you at a struggle for bills.
Think about what memory will make you smile 10 years down the road your baby waking up Easter morning to a bunch of stuff or the boy you dated that may not even be around for the following Easter. It is your child. I would not let him control what you do for him. I would almost say he’s jealous if you ask me.

Tell your boyfriend to get lost, sounds like some red flags coming from your boyfriend. Holidays even the smallest one should be made special as far as I’m concerned, these are memories made for your son, and I’m sure he will remember how special these holidays where when he gets older and he will do the same for his children one day. Like I said sounds like some red flags coming from him and I’d rethink your relationship with him especially if you have moved him into your home with you and your child. Control issues lead to abuse, my kids come first before anyone or anything period.

Go out for your child!
Sorry, but I would never allow a new boyfriend of 1 year or any amount of years for that matter dictate how much I spend on my children. You can have an opinion, yes, but no further. It basically goes like this… We did it before without you and we can do it again without you. Time to re-examine this relationship if something so small as this ticks him off.

Tell him how important it is to you, and if he doesn’t respect your position, decide if you are willing to stay with someone who wants to argue over something so trivial. Child rearing has to be agreed upon for a successful relationship.
Also, look within yourself, do you really need to give him so many material things? Maybe compromise.
You are the parent! He is telling you how to parent vour child, only one year! In my eye he will be over baring your parenting in the near future!
Fk the boyfriend sounds like he’s jealous and it is not his call… you only have a child do everything you can now so he knows he is loved and not his call… that’ll my opinion … I will nvr let any man or anyone tell me what i can or cannot do especially the holidays…
Do what you wanna do for your kid.
It’s sad that you even need advice

Why would u even listen to a guy telling u what to do or not do for YOUR SON??? RIDICULOUS
He’s not wrong really but it’s your kid
How I would handle it!?! Is that I will do what I want for my kids!! My husband ( father of my kids) knows this as well. I will do what I want with my money. I got out for holidays as well. My husband has learned let me do what I want because I am going to anyway. Now this is a boyfriend I would explain to him that I have been doing this on my own for 5 years and doing it my way. I am not going to change how I parent nor how I do holiday’s because you feel it’s to much. It’s your money do what you want
Did you also him to pay for this? It’s important to keep traditions for our kids we had before the new men.

I went all out for my kids on holidays, and for easter, I actually get my puppy a basket, some treats, and a toy, because she is family

Tell your EX bf that youre sorry no one loved him enough to make the holidays special for him and that youre gonna do what you want to make YOUR son happy. Just because he’s miserable about a holiday doesnt mean he has to make everyone around him miserable, Id tell him to shove it. Unnecessary argument

Oooh no. Another controlling boyfriend. It’s jealousy, nothing to do with spoiling your son. Do what you want for your kid. He’s only a bf and you guys are NOT married so he’s not even a stepdad. My gut says ditch him because he’s going to continue making you choose between him and your child. And he might take it out on your son. This says future domestic violence all over it. I know I sound bitter but I’ve lived it and then worked in Battered Women’s Services. Now I’m a mental health counselor. Please stay safe.

Don’t change what you do for your child because of a dude. It will be what your son sees and make him feel like you are choosing that guy over him. And also, why does he care? Is it coming out of his pocket? Tell that guy to step off.

Your son is first if he’s controlling you now then it will only get worse
Continue to buy your whatever the hell you want! A man that doesn’t want a kid to be happy is a miserable one. He is most likely jealous of your child. Never let a person like that POS control you or your household. Men come and go, your kids are yours for life. Never ever chose a boyfriend over your child.
Tell him you have your own way of celebrating with your child and you don’t plan on changing it.
You might want to begin rethinking this relationship. It is nothing to tell about and it’s a holiday to celebrate.
It’s a good time to sit down and share family and holiday expectations before you move forward in the relationship. I wish more people knew to do this.
Someone once said if you marry for love and do not consider your lifestyle it will be unhappy ever after.
If you marry someone who is very strict on a tight budget and you spend freely for example or vise versa you will be unhappy for life trying to work it out and missing out on life

We are so quick to change our lives and how we feel for temporary people. Be careful, there may be ill feelings towards your son! Control issues this early on is a sign to get out anyways. And to state, "NO DRAMA WITH HIM!"

Who the hell let’s this new only a year old boyfriend tell you the mother how to celebrate the holiday. If he doesn’t want to be apart of your holidays he can move out. T this guy does NOT have an opinion unless he’s paying or parenting. Why do you feel bad? Your kid should come first. Always. He’s the NEW bf . He needs to shut up and be happy he’s got a place to live.
Tell him to mind his own business
It’s hard I know but if he feels this way and acts this now it may get worse.
I love going all out for my kids no matter the holiday. You shouldn’t let a man that just came into the picture tell you what to do with your child! It’s your money, not his. Do what you’ve always done and go all out!!
Your Child should always come first, sounds like he’s controlling…#redflag

He’s your little boy, you do as much as you feel like doing for him! If you want to go all out then by all means GO ALL OUT! You’re boyfriend doesn’t have a say, THAT LITTLE BOY IS YOUR BABY! Don’t let ANYONE tell you what you can or can’t do for your child. He doesn’t get a say unless he’s footing the WHOLE bill for the basket. If he’s not the one paying for it then he can back off. And if he wants to turn the situation into a drama episode then that’s on him not on you, your child comes first, if he can’t understand that then he can leave. Don’t feel obligated to do what your boyfriend wants, and don’t feel obligated to try and fit him into your lifestyle if the puzzle piece is the wrong shape, you can’t make that piece fit if it’s meant to fit in a different spot.

Easter isnt a 2nd christmas. Chocolate in the easter basket, maybe some bubbles and a spring outfit and thats it.
Your kid is more important than your boyfriend that hasn’t raised a child.
Easter is about Jesus Christ. Dye eggs… or make cookies… have an Easter Egg hunt in your yard. You’ve lost the Focus.

Your child should come first. He has jo say in it
i know someone should have told you this but your son comes first, show the whiny “man” child the door and get you a REAL man that will love your son because he is a part of you …your son is only young once and if you want to get him stuff for Easter i say go for it, he will remember how his mama was there for him
