[quote=Anonymous]OP, I feel you - completely. My MIL is same. MIL wants to give the biggest and best gifts so that our gifts and Santa’s gifts always paled in comparison. She never asks what to get (doesn’t want suggestions either) or what others are getting DD because we celebrate Christmas Eve with her and she knows that she will be giving gifts before anyone else. It is SO selfish, and it is absolutely her attempt at buying love. The worst was a $800 item from American Girl that DD mentioned to MIL when I wasn’t around. MIL didn’t ask if we were getting it or if Santa was bringing it. Just went out and bought it. It was extravagant, and DD was actually too old for it, so we ended up selling it. But we were so pissed. The sad thing is that my DD sees right through it and doesn’t particularly enjoy her grandmother for this and various other reasons.[/quote]
