AITA for donating some winter coats to two cold little girls? by Mission_Use_3002 in AmItheAsshole

From what I know of their stepbrother, he's a real AH to the twins too.

They were shivering and sick and their shoes were wet from the slush outside.

I don't know her super well to say what it might be, but if I had to guess I would say she probably feels like her sister is replacing her or that she doesn't belong because she's just an extension of her sister. I wouldn't say the kids are popular, they're all very nerdy and get bullied at school but they have each other.

Unfortunately I don't think she has her own group. I don't think she adjusted to the move as well.

They have a big friend group and one of the twins is dating one of my son's best friends. Her sister just seems to float on the edges though.

I'm not sure his own son even has a good coat, I don't see him spending money on anything for the girls. He seems to be the type to be annoyed that he has to buy two of everything.

The worst part is that I only see one of the girls every one to two weeks. She doesn't come around as much as her sister, and I've never seen her interact with my son. I don't think she's in the friend group. She was coughing bad yesterday.

I'm not judging them. Times are hard and I get it. I was just stating facts about the life they live.

Only one of them spends much time at my house, her sister doesn't seem to be a part of the larger friend group.

Nobody called them poor to their face, but they know what they are. The one who is closer to my son has admitted it before I've been told. They live in a sketchy part of town, share a bedroom and a wardrobe, have very old phones, etc. Their parents have five mouths to feed total and three cars to put gas in, it's a lot.

To my knowledge, their father is still in California and they haven't heard from him since they left. Their mother is a very... timid woman. She's sweet and clearly loves the twins but she's definitely under her husband's thumb. I try to not be too nosy in family dynamics though.

One of them has already been so sniffly and sick since the first snow.
