Their mom died in October a day after I moved in. It seems that my fiance spoiled them before. They are polite kids and get good grades. But lately (since xmas) they just want more and more. HIs older 2 kids aren't like this. I talked to my fiance about it but it hasn't changed. He has easliy spent $3500 on them since (and including) xmas. What can I do if anything?!

this is really difficult because you cannot interfere in your husbands parenting, it will cause all sorts of resentments between you and him, the kids and you etc. it sounds like your husband is using gifts to make the children happy after the death of their mother, but if you live together your finances are shared (i assume) so its really not fair on you to be spending so much money. I think you should really discuss this with your husband again and make sure he is not substituting his time with gifts.

there is nothing you can do. they are his kids and probably thinks he is filling a need they have when all they really want is their mom. i am sorry for their lose but you have to support him in this until he(or they) realize this is not working. be there for them all. love is the best medicine. good luck.
