2 brothers.

Neither have their own kids/family/bills (other than mobile bill) etc. One lives with my dad, the other with my mum (neither pay rent so all their income is theirs).

Just found out from my mum that neither have bought my daughter an Xmas gift.



I’m a skint single parent and I have bought them a nice tshirt each from Next. Can’t afford it, but it’s xmas.



My daughter doesn’t see her dad, none of his family bother with her. Only other gifts she gets are from me, my mum and my dad.

I know xmas shouldn’t be about getting gifts but I’m so upset they aren’t buying for my daughter as they’ve overspent on their Xmas do’s etc.

One bro has bought spas days for step

Mother and step sisters (2), other has bought for 3 of his friends kids.

We are close, have a good relationship... so why don’t they love their niece enough to buy for her when they spend so much on others?!!!!



Aibu to give them their tshirts that I’ve already wrapped then take them back after they’ve opened them if they do not produce a gift for my dd?? I would spend the money on taking my dd out somewhere before she goes back to school.



I’d never expect a gift for me from them, I host them here on Xmas day, they’re just cf aren’t they?!
