[quote=Anonymous]My mother is totally like this and always has been. She still will overwhelm us (and the kids) with gifts and then as we are still opening will start saying "Do you like it? I had it specially made/ordered/customized, etc. etc. etc." and continue to essentially beg for praise and thanks all.day.long It's exhausting and totally takes the joy out of getting the gifts b/c I feel like I have to go over the top with enthusiasm with every gift I receive (same for my kids). But that's just the way it is. So I've accepted it and am sometimes a little sarcastic if she asks too many times if I like it "yes Mom, it is THE most FANTASTIC gift I have EVER received in my life, which is why I have already said thank you 17 times". Immature I know but it usually is enough to make her realize she is being annoying and she stops for the moment.[/quote]
