[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Side note: amazed that so many of us have the same stuff-loving, piles-of-cheap-crap-gifting, borderline-hoarder MILs. Is it generational? Regional? Cultural?[/quote] I think it is in part growing up poorer and in part not wanting to give expensive toys to very young children, since they will probably destroy them anyhow and enjoy the cheaper toys just as much. At least that seems to be the thought process of some of my older relatives. I just registered or put in the donate box. There are plenty of lower income kids who would be happy with new toys.
