[quote=Anonymous]OP, I never threw the stuff out but I hated that my inlaws got my kids that kind of stuff. I really wanted a house with just a few well-made toys and my mother-in-law introduced all that crap into my house and got my kids into it. I wanted them to appreciate things and remember where they got them, but how could they when they had so much! I decided quickly though that my mother-in-law was doing this out of love (giving junk is her love language blah blah) and that I didn't want to get in the way of that. I do think she got a kick out of introducing them to the hot new toys but not because she thought I was ridiculous with my wooden toys, more because it was genuinely fun for her. I guess I am trying to say that I am sure your heart is in the right place and I am surprised that your sister-in-law throws stuff away in front of you. But I do think you can do your part and find a middle ground .[/quote]
