My DS and DB share a hobby. DB has a piece of expensive equipment he no longer uses which he's said he'd like to 'give' 13 yo DS 'as a birthday present.'
But DB also says he might want it back at some point so DS must look after this 'gift' in order to be able to return it in pristine condition in the future.
I asked DB to clarify whether this is in fact DS's birthday present or actually a loan. DS is very responsible and will value and take care of this thing but if he uses it for its intended purpose it will potentially travel with him and could get damaged or stolen. Also, I don't think birthday presents work like that.
Attempting to discuss this with DB has resulted in him becoming angry, offended, and calling me ungrateful.
