[quote=Anonymous]OP I had this issue with my mother when I got married. She would buy me lots of things for the kitchen because she saw it on sale. Initially I accepted gratefully without a question but when I realized I didn't use a lot of the stuff she gave me I actually felt guilty that she was spending money on things that weren't actually being used. I did convey this to her and i'm sure her feelings were hurt at the time but I think she's over it and now she still gets us things but isn't hurt if I say- I already have this thing (so she can return it) or like you I have my particulars with BPA free etc and she knows that too. Yes it's being a control freak but it's your life, your family and you are allowed to have your particulars.[/quote]
