I've seen those before! And I always just think "Eww". Now I know!

They likely think it IS going to please her. But momma wants to disabuse them of that notion and tell them the gift they lovingly chose will not be wanted or appreciated.

What PROOF do you have that it was "lovingly chose?" None.

What proof do you have that it wasn't? Only entitled people believe they get to dictate what gift they (or their child) receive.

She can exchange it if she doesn't like it. Oy

I'm sorry if your world view automatically thinks horribly of everyone. I prefer a world where grandparents choose a gift they think their grandchild will like. And I don't need proof to think that. What a sad, cynical world you live in.
