[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gifts are not your chance to get other people to buy the things that you want to give your children. Unless you are in dire finances and kids really need backpacks or coats or something, let the giver decide the gift. If the giver is upset because the kids don't like or care about the gifts, that's a different story. But grandparents don't have to buy the crap you want to give your kids. That's your job.[/quote] Could not agree more with this, and I think you'd get almost universal agreement from all posters here. That doesn't mean it's polite for giver to deluge you with cheap crap. Kind of like when I bought toilet paper for my elderly parents during the pandemic, but accidentally ordered them a commercial-sized pallet of tp. Sure my heart was in the right place, but they can't fit all that tp in their house. If I had done that on purpose, they could rightfully be annoyed with me![/quote]
