Feeling like the house is split

I have been in my SD life for almost 10 years( she is currently 15). She is with us between 3-5 days a week. Days we have her i feel like I'm a single mom with my other kids. He spends money on her like its nothing and takes her to do all the things and our kids get w.e is left. He tells me he will buy w.e they need but he told me not to get expensive soccer cleats for my son since his feet are still growing then turns around and buys a very expensive pair of my SD even though her old ones are only a year old. Idk how to approach the situation.

hm, that’s biased ain’t it? i feel that’s always a hard one to crack because i too, experience this every now and then with two sd’s. there are days where it gets under my skin a bit more than others but i sometimes wonder if it’s just to rebuild their connection from missed days, lost time… we don’t need to buy their love. it happens without realizing to must. whereas your son lives with you full time? knows what he needs everyday. would suggest (but dont really listen to me) donating or selling the previous set of cleats? she obviously doesn’t need two and could tell that it wasn’t necessary after all? i started getting into that habit and spouse realized that’s where that ”extra spending” went.
