[quote=Anonymous]I ask that each family member give our DD (who's 4) ONE gift each. This is still a lot - one gift from my ILs, one gift each from each of my parents (who are divorced), one gift from my sister, one gift from each of DH's sisters. And they all tend to "cheat" on the one gift - ie, put multiple related gifts together, or give many books in addition to a toy, acting like books don't count. Every year so far, we've ended up not doing any gifts for DD from DH and me other than a few tiny stocking stuffers, because she is totally overwhelmed. Last year, she unwrapped things and then started just throwing things aside and asking "what else?" which made me feel so RAGEY that she was already developing that cavalier attitude about having so much. I plan to continue the one gift rule for the foreseeable future. I put together an Amazon wishlist of suggestions for my family, because they ask for it.[/quote]
