[quote=Anonymous][quote] I totally hear you. I'm in the same boat. I tried to say something nice to my parent (not the step) and it didn't work. The only thing that I can suggest is that intercept the package before your kids get to it in case your kids like all of the stuff -- that way you can get rid of it without anyone knowing about it. Pick out one thing that your kids might like from them. Do your parents visit during the holidays? My parent never listened to any suggestion until recently when they saw my DS open up a truck, and one that he really wanted. My kids are very sweet when they receive a gift no matter how odd or pointless, but they can't hold their enthusiasm when they open a present that they truly love, and it was that comparison that my step-mom saw recently and now she gets it. She still buys too much. [/quote]
