[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This will be OK, if you and DH get on the same page with them about how it will be handled.

1) As a PP said, make sure you have a say in the presentation. If they want to give it in person, make sure it is presented as, "Grandma and Grandpa got us a special iPad, with some fun new games for you. We'll keep it on this shelf, and when it's time for a game or a show, we'll get it down for you."

2) When they visit, I'd make a point to keep it stored on that shelf, not out and about, where they could casually grab it and start up a game or a show without your permission. I'd make the "special shelf" in YOUR closet, where only you and DH can get it.[/quote]

This is crazy.  Sorry.  There is no need to do ANY of this.  She can just say thank you and the rules stay the same for the iPad, regardless of who owns it.[/quote]Seriously overkill reaction right. Geez, just use the dang thang the way you have been using the ipad that you already use.[/quote]
