[quote=Anonymous]I am also single and childless and have worked many years with kids, but I am not a gift person. I hate "stuff." It's all clutter and while I understand it's sentimental to the gift giver, I don't care for any of it. I'd so much rather receive a 12 pack of select a size paper towels because it's something I'd actually use. It's not that your gifts aren't "good enough" it's that they're stuff people don't want/need. Gifts are not your SILs love language, OP. I agree she should have mentioned it and said "thank you" but for many people, receiving gifts is actually a burden. And stop giving unsolicited tips and ideas to your SIL. Let them (or your brother) come to you. [/quote]
