I have 4 kids, 2 bio and 2 step. My issue is I feel that my bio kids get less than my other 2 due to having a whole other set of parents/grandparents. How do I explain to my bios the fact that the other 2 get more of everything and they get less?? Bios are 2 and 4, the others are 8 and 10 yrs old. I feel like my Bios deserve at least as much as the others. Please help with any insight.
You said your kids are 2 & 4
You said your kids are 2 & 4 that means it's YOU who is having a hard time accepting the skids get more because they have more people in their families. Your kids are too young to notice it and when they do notice, it'll just be a dose of reality. Life isn't fair, it never will be and it's impossible to make it so and those who try to make it so will go insane. You need to accept first so when when they're teenagers, you'll be able to explain it to them.
You handle it the same way as
You handle it the same way as when any other children get more stuff. That's life.
Hon, you do not have 4 kids,
Hon, you do not have 4 kids, you only have 2 kids.... and 2 step kids... that's the problem.
Nothing stops you from getting an additional gift for your children, something small... and in now way can a 2 year old realize a 10 year old is getting more gifts, you are making this an issue - not the children, stop it now.
