[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, incredibly rude. Your son should accept the gift graciously then, after they leave, discuss donating it to charity. You should be encouraging charitable behavior rather than ungratefulness for your abundant gifts.[/quote] Grandma? Is that you? No, the OP's parents' behavior is not "charitable behavior". It's a power struggle. Particularly since OP made it clear bulky gifts were unwanted at their small house. There are people out there for whom "gift-giving" has nothing to do with charity or "giving". Sounds like the g'parents are some of those people. I know, because my MIL is also one of these narcissistic self-absorbed "givers".[/quote]
