HI the last 3 years i have bought my partner gifts from his kids ( 8 and 15 ) do i do this again for the 15 year old this year ?

that's a tough one. I stopped once the kiddo was old enough to earn their own $. I would try to get their imput, either shopping together or allowing the child to decide what to give w/in a set price range.

I helped my SS if he asked me to, but he paid for it. If he didn't ask, I didn't remind him or offer.

An alternative if sk doesn't have a job is doing extra chores for $, especially if you need the garage cleaned out,  vehicles detailed or something like that. Hopefully it will instil a sense of pride in earning the $, too!
