Need another perspective

Me and my husband married 6years have a 2year old son together.

I have an 18year old and he has a 14year old.

Every year a month or two away from Xmas without fail his daughter will ask for a new phone, claiming her phone don’t work properly. He goes out and buys her one because her phone ‘is broken’.

I teach my 18year old to earn and save - she takes care of her things and very rarely asks or demands things!

He also sends her £60 a week so she can go out with mates! She saves nothings and just demands moans goes on and on until she gets what she wants. Her mother does not do this and seems to be a bit like me in the sense the child need to learn value of money etc.

Anyway he has just brought another one as she states her phone is broke. He has requested she give him the old one back so he can fix it and return it to her if she breaks or loses the new one. She claims no cos she is giving it to her friend!! My husband said but you said it doesn’t work. To which she laughed.

Now this pisses me off to the highest form and my husband and I end up in a row every-time!

He just shocked me by saying, it’s my daughter and I will buy her whatever I want whenever I want! Ok fine it’s your money fine however, our son has needed a winter coat from weeks ago. Our son doesn’t get £60 put into any form of savings for him and his clothes are all second hand.

Our son also has very little in regards of toys due to me struggling financially since he arrived.

Husband helps with bills but only recently as he was out of work for years.

Do I have a right to be mad? Is it down to me to ensure our son has what he needs even though he see it ok to send silly money each week directly to his teen and spends over £600 on the latest phones for her.
