[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is she buying his wishlist items and not you? Just ask her to give him an Amazon card, or put $$ into his 529.[/quote] Well the first time I assumed she was going to purchase the Nintendo. The second time it wasn’t a wish list item but still, he couldn’t use it when it arrived. So when she asks for ideas just say gift card, really? I don’t think that’ll go over well. She will want to know why, to which... that is my original question. What do I say?[/quote] Nearly every kid I know who is 11+ just wants a gift card. It’s not a strange thing to say. They want to pick out something for themselves in the moment and not be bothered about coming up with lists of wants.[/quote]
