[quote=Anonymous][quote] Where space is the issue, I agree with the suggestion that you offer to store the stuff at the grandparents' house. But where the issue is that you preferred a different one, I say take the gift and be glad you don't have to buy one. It may not be specifically what you wanted, but in the end it's just another "thing" that's going to end up in a landfill anyway, whether it's a stroller of whatever make/model or a toy kitchen, or anything else. A ccepting the gift graciously seems more important than having the perfect mass-produced item. And it teaches your kids that it really isn't the object that matters, but the fact of the gift itself. [/quote] I agree with this. [/quote]
