Ok, here is the situation. I found out recently that son's gf is purposely destroying her childrens clothes that I bought them.
She's said there is no money for clothes for the kids. Or if there is, will wait for rummage sales. The problem with that is children keep growing, they don't wait. Now, I like getting them things (their mom says what I buy is to nice for the girl though fine for the boy). Plus, I have the time to check sales inorder to save money. She mostly has ruined the girls clothes then blames it on her daughter. Like I said, found out thats not the case.
I am considering having the children keep all the clothes I buy them down here. Any other suggestions?
Even, kind of understand why she does it...jealousy. In my mind though....Grow Up! Did I mention, she has started buying clothes for herself, identical to what I wear. I've heard "imatation is the sincerest form of flattery". Bite me! LOL
Proud to say those kids have changed since being here. Not sick as much. Victoria's hair is no longer wispy thin and falling out. Hard to believe how much they have grown also. No longer skinny little things but filled out and rosy cheeked. Yes, I do think I had a bit to do with that.

I guess I missed something here, whose kids are at your house? Whoever they are, sounds like they are very lucky to be with you!

read it and all the answers then explain herself but that is probably
just mean. I would definately keep them at your house and believe me
I would save yourself $$$ by going to thrift shops, Salvation Army, etc.
They have great stuff and because as you say the kids do grow will
allow you to get more things plus even toys and things they can enjoy
at your house too. Girlfriend needs to explain herself and also get
some help. Maybe if you buy her something new too she will change her
attitude. Keep your chin up, you are NOT doing anything wrong.
