My boyfriend refuses to let go all out for my sons Easter basket

It’s your child, do what you want. My hubby knows that I go all out on holidays, and says nothing about it anymore.

Ya no , spoil your kid if you want . They are only little once an only believe for so long …. Sheeesh

One keyword boyfriend. He can easily be out the door. It’s your son. He should know not to come between yall

Your son comes first!!! Boyfriend needs to go, he will only get worse :rage::rage::rage:

Darn, get that man out of your life!

YOU have say in what goes for YOUR CHILD. If that doesn’t settle right with him then he just has to deal with it cause your son comes before ANY man. I’m sorry you’re going through this hardship but know your child is more important and that he should always come first.

Wow he came in trying to take over you want to reconsider him living there

Go all out. You won’t regret it and if it’s a problem for him. He’s the problem.

That is YOUR child, you spoil the hell out of him if you want. If he’s going to get upset over something like an Easter basket to the point where he’s almost yelling at you, that’s a red flag because how’s he going to react when there’s a real issue to deal with

I am torn on this one as I can see both sides
I wouldn’t go all out for just Easter tbh but doesn’t bother me the once who do as each to there own but what I wouldn’t allow is my partner telling me what I can and can’t do with my own kid na put the foot down tell him like it or lump it you do you hun

They are only young once if you choose and are financially able to do it for your son that is your choice to make not his. I’d keep watch with this boyfriend of yours, sounds to me he’s controlling and it may get worst In time. Much love to you and your son :heartpulse:

If this is the way , how that guy is already “mis-treating” both you and Your son , than I would get rid of him now . Things will only get worse Dear . Speaking from experience.

Depending if you see a future with the guy. Tell him you will keep something back, that your kid is used to getting this amount for Easter and you’ll slowly reduce amount alittle over time then agree to keep an item to give him as a reward or special treat another day soon.

First off he should not feel comfortable yelling at you about what you do for your child :triangular_flag_on_post::triangular_flag_on_post::triangular_flag_on_post:. Second none of his business. Sounds like a complete douche. Tell his ass to take several seats or gtfo. I will say this will only get worse if dudes getting bent over Easter gifts. I’d say dodge a bullet and find a dumpster to put the trash in and be done with it…

First I wouldn’t let my bf dictate what I do for your son. But secondly, Easter is so much MORE than Easter baskets and things. It’s about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ!

If your out of control on your spending maybe he has a point I’m not sure what you mean by going all out

I agree with others that Easter isn’t like other holidays. As a child we got lovely Easter baskets and that was it. I did get my kids more than I did, and I’d never let a boy friend tell me what I can or can’t do for my kids. Maybe your boyfriend didn’t get stuff for Easter.

He’s not the kids dad, and even if he was you can do whatever the fuck you want. Screw him. Tf. He can’t just come in and act like he has a say on how you parent YOUR CHILD. no. just no no no. Spoil your kid all you want. Don’t let your boyfriend have any say of what you do and how you parent your child. He’s your boyfriend, not your child’s new daddy.

How you gonna let a man that ain’t your kids father for one tell you that you can’t celebrate Easter with your child smh girl bye

Set your boundary now. If can’t respect it then he doesn’t respect you.

Fuck him get your baby what ever you want and if he still wants to be a dick dump his ass! They are only that little once and when they are older you will miss getting the Easter baskets for them and seeing their faces light up.

Your kid comes first always
Who is he to think he can come in and change the way you celebrate with your child?

He is your son and if you want to go all out, go all out… at the end of the day YOU are his parent and the ‘boyfriend’ has no right to say anything.

I would reconsider having him around to begin with

Have you taught your son the meaning of Easter? Does “Going All Out” include going to church on Easter Sunday? Are you treating your son within your financial means? Your son, your decision.

I mean I agree with the it’s not Christmas but he handled it way wrong.

I PERSONALLY don’t go all out for Easter, Valentines, etc, but that’s all me, and I don’t particularly care to see other people do it,BUTTTT ITS NOT MY LIFE. He definitely should of taken a different approach if he felt so strongly about it.

What do you mean? The man has to go!

I don’t even know where to begin on this. First of all, a grown man shouldn’t be yelling at you. How you spend your money in your home on your child is your business. Period.

I’d choose the route either him mature or him move. My Easter plans wouldn’t change. :woman_shrugging:t2:

Umm it is your kid. Is it your money? I agree with the bf because I think gets get way too darn much for holidays but that is for my kids. They don’t get a crap ton but they also don’t get spoiled through the year or bdays. To each their own. Just know once you start it if you have more kids or come on hard times it hurts worse to not be able to give them the same level of stuff as you would have before than if you just never do it in the first place

I’m sorry it’s YOUR son. You do what you’ve always done!!!

Do not let that man take that away from you and your baby… I will say this tho, plan to go all out every year lol cause they dang sure remember lol and holidays are like what once a month I mean it’s not terrible to want to spoil your kids

Laways put your kid first! Fuck what your boyfriend says! Your house your child, your decision! Your money!

I’m not being funny but my kids (I have identical twin boys) will always come first no matter what and if any guy didn’t get that I would be kicking them to the curb. Xx

I would say as long as you aren’t putting yourself in financial trouble then it’s fine. As long as your kid is appreciative and respectful.

Take the boyfriend back where you got him and return him for a refumd! Then do as you please with your child! My husband may side eye me for what I spend on our kids for holidays, but he would never say anything about it. Also, if the boyfriend isn’t paying for it, he has no say!

Kick his ssd sorry ass out. The boy is your son and you can do as you please. If this is the way your boy friend is going to be now, he wouldn’t change if you got married. He has no connection with your son in any way and obviously has no feelings for him either. Don’t make your son suffer because of that jerk.

He is your boyfriend. You had your son way before your boyfriend. This shouldn’t be an issue.

Do how you do and he can kick rocks. I go all out for mine too and they grown this year :rofl::rofl::rofl:
