My mum has bought DD a dress knowing we won’t like it.

It’s DD first birthday soon and my mum has asked me to collect an outfit from hers ready for DD birthday.

My mum was laughing as she said that neither me or DH will like it/to our tastes but in her eyes it’s lovely.

What planet would I dress my DD, on her first birthday, in an outfit that caused a round of laughter over.

One hand I could be polite and pretend that DD got it dirty or I could straight out refuse to accept it.

What a waste of money and material. If anything I’m actually quite annoyed.

Put her in it, take a few pics.

  1. It will make your mother happy
  2. You can use the pics for blackmail purposes when she is about 15 and won't tidy her bedroom

Yes, this!

It's hideous 😂 😂

You are massively over reacting.
