[quote=Anonymous]I agree it is rude not to accept a gift. Having said that, in these circumstances, I'm silently cheering for your DS. It's an awkward situation. I think you need to do something (better your DH) and bar gifts except on occasions. I wouldn't go asking for $ as an alternative but maybe gift them alternative ideas (doing activities with your DS or whatever). I assume they do this because this is how they show their love. But enough is enough. And sure, just load up the past toys your DS doesn't want and donate to charity. My ILs don't live so close but if we did see them more, we'd have this issue. As it is, we have stuff that hasn't even made it out of the box and goes straight into the charity bin. Lots of it is crap but also lots of it is age inappropriate or just not what our DC cares about. Basically my FIL buys things he wants to play with. Wish he'd just buy it for himself.[/quote]
