[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I had your MIL.[/quote]

No, you don’t. Mine is JUST like this, and we had WWIII with her over her lack of self-control in the gift-giving department. I posted about it years ago, and the posters who whine “Be grateful. It’s the job of the grandparents to spoil their grandkids. I sure wish that was MY problem” are PITAs who don’t know what a true problem this is. [/quote]

I am a DP who is fairly certain that the "PITAs" knew what the "true problem" was and were just too kind to say it to your face even on this anonymous board.  Because you still have not figured it out, let me explain what they have learned and what you have not:  you cannot control other people, you can only control you and your reaction.  I wasn't on this board "years ago" but judging from your most recent post I can tell you that your reaction to both your MIL and the people from whom you sought guidance was and still is distasteful.

You waged "WWIII" over this?  That indeed is a "true problem".[/quote]
