[quote=Anonymous]My mother and stepfather used to have similar issues with my step siblings when we were younger (mostly that they'd get expensive gifts and they would take them back to their mother's house and the gifts would get broken or we'd just never see them again). Eventually, they started giving "experiences" as gifts. Things like special classes or camps, tickets to concerts or sporting events, occasionally a special family vacation in lieu of any gifts at all. This way they could still give a big "wow" present, without having to worry about any ramifications from their mother.[/quote]
