[quote=Anonymous]We have 2 ipads in our house that are used by the entire family. I have 2 boys and I'd say they use them about 25-30 min per week. My husband and I also each have an Iphone that they can play with on occasion if we are on a long car ride or they want to use them to take a picture, etc. My point is ..we have plenty of technology. My Inlaws who live out of state sent my son an Ipad mini for his 6th birthday and they did not ask us or tell us that they were doing this. They are not the easiest people to get along with, I should add...they are very controlling and opinionated and just in general people I try to limit my time with. That being said, I am not sure how to handle the gift. I think the "exclusive ownership" of an item such as an Ipad needs to wait until my son is much older. He had never wanted his own (although he was thrilled to receive it) nor does he need his own. He has plenty of time for that sort of thing.  What would you do?? My husband agrees with me but feels bad because he thinks they were just doing something nice since they live so far and don't see them often. I really don't care what their intentions were..I don't want my son to keep the gift. Any ideas??!!!! Its driving me crazy!!
Thank you!!!!
