I wish another woman tells me what I can or can’t give to my kids…

No. You aren’t missing anything. She (stepmother) is being petty. The other kids are too young to have an Apple watch or even a computer so no harm done there re jealousy between the kids. I think she just has a general problem with you. You had no business bring in HER husband’s life at all, even though it was before she came along. Petty woman.

Funny!
Its your kid.
You buy your kids What ever you want!
Since When do you need anyone’s Approval??

She need to mind her buisness at the end of the day that’s your child …wth

No it sounds like jealousy to me

She has no business telling you who to give a gift to tell her to take a flying leap

It’s a control thing. I wouldn’t worry about it.

It’s your business what you give to your son.

None of her business…

She needs to mind her own business geez.

That is your son not hers!!! You give him what you want!!!

Not her child tell her my child not yours

Someone worldly and wise once told me that you have to choose your battles wisely. This seems pretty trivial in the broad scheme of things. Step mom needs to save her energy and efforts for (heaven forbid) bigger battles that children and families face these days ie. poverty, pregnancy and pills just to name a few. Where does dad stand on the issue? Sounds like she is just trying to push her weight around a bit. Furthermore, your child Is lucky to have a parent (mother) involved in his life and a gift giver at that… many are not so fortunate. At any rate, if this is an issue, it should be between mom, dad and child. Period. Don’t piss the child off over something as small as a watch because I promise you, it could force them to rebel with bigger and worse things next. Whatever the outcome, just love him to pieces… her? Not so much

It’s your child do as you please. DON’T let no one tell you what too do with your children

Ummm its YOUR son. If they dnt pay for it shouldnt matter.

She’s his stepmom…you’re his mother…tell her it’s none of her business!

You’re the Mom-period, not the Step-mom. Your gift to him, she should stay out of it.

She needs to mind her own business. It’s YOUR son.

No that’s your right has his mother

Ur the mom! Do what u think is right 4 ur son

Tell her to mind her own business. That’s YOUR Son.

Their your kids, you can give them anything you want

Ummm, it’s your child, right? Enough said.

She’s just jealous and thinks you are trying to out due them by giving him something she thinks probably cost a lot of money. She needs to take a chill pill. There is no reason for her to get bent out of shape.

Honestly, it sounds mostly like jealousy and nothing else. Sounds like bringing your other kids into it was only to get you emotional.

Yes, responsible step parent does have a say and what’s going on. Should be considered and listen to. But also, you are allowed to give your kids things that you think will benefit them. Or that you think they have earned. If she wanted to have a productive conversation, she would have brought it up more calmly. Would not have given accusations. And would have said this is how I would prefer it to go in the future so I could be prepared, for any other number of things that would actually open up a conversation and not just be accusations

He is your son not hers she is only the step mom.

Step mommy needs to stay in step mommy position. Because she’s your ex’s broad. She is not the mother of your children. So she needs to stay in her lane. I don’t have the patience for females like that you got one time to address about something that I conceived and gave birth to and I promise she will not like me afterwards. Just a piece of advice you need to watch her closely around your children because if she’s being petty about this, then she’s petty about a lot of things that occur with your child, or children. They might be living with The Flowers of the Attic type of Stepmom.

Wait! What??? Why are you even questioning this?? She wants drama. ignore her.

So you’re the mom ya?

She can be as angry as she wants lmfao you’re not hurting the kid. She needs to mind her own

Tell her your the mother you give your kids what you want.

Nope control thing I went through it too

I think you three need to be on the same page, or this will never end. Co-parenting is hard, I can only imagine, sit down with them, don’t be defensive about it, because you haven’t done anything wrong, but communicate. There may be an underlinning reason or just a miscommunication and once resolved, everyone can move on.

Been there lived it 3 times.
The woman had no right to what your son has from you as long as it wasn’t a gift their kids can’t get from them. Has nothing to do with them but it’s NOT COOL if his step siblings can never get one. Kids take it to heart. It’s all about the kids PERIOD. They didn’t ask for the situations the parents put them in.
Yes, I’m a father that raised my 3 and 1 stepson.

Tell her to mind the business that pays her, that’s your son and you can buy him whatever you want with no concern of hers
