[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to be gracious and thank them for the gift and then use that as an opportunity to mention again that you don't allow candy. You can say we took a few pieces out for her as a "special treat" and then shared your beautiful gift with our neighborhood trick or treaters who were most appreciative. [/quote] That is a mixed message. It's like giving in to an unwanted kiss and then giggling and saying "don't kiss me again." [/quote] Not really. You have to thank them for the gift. And then you say: "Now you know we don't give Lil Cutie candy, so please refrain from gifts like this in the future." You can say you kept a few pieces just to be polite. Or don't - you can say you shared it but you absolutely need to thank the grandparents for the gesture. [/quote]
