Hi,
My inlaws like to buy ds1 and ds2 gifts, I'm happy for them to do so.
They go to America every 1.5/2 years and think we should let them buy all the boys clothes for the year while they're there.
I've told them if they see anything they like they can get them but they don't need to buy all their clothes.
They keep emailing me asking me to measure boys shoulder to shoulder, arm length, waist, leg length and in seam. I've emailed them back that the boys don't need much but if they really like something just get them a year up.
They're not getting tailored clothes, just target, Walmart etc, nothing wrong with those clothes just don't need exact measurements.
Aibu to be annoyed that they ask for their measurements, how many undies they need, pairs of socks, etc in every email after I've said they don't need them?
At Christmas and birthdays they ask me for a list of 5 presents each for the boys and to tell them where to buy them.
They also wanted to choose and pay for the health insurance they thought we should have, wanted to go with us to our broker to be sure we got the best mortgage.
Im grateful that they want to buy my sons things but aibu in thinking they're going overboard? Others have always just bought them something a size up.
