Dd ordered wine for me

[Mysunshine51]

It was my birthday recently and dd15 bought me a bottle of wine - she ordered it online and ticked the “over 18” box.
She said normally she’d have asked her dad to order it (we’re separated) but as he’s moving soon didn’t want it to end up at the wrong address.
I know her heart was in the right place , just a bit cross with her for lying about her age.
I’m as sure as I can be she wouldn’t buy alcohol for herself and if she wants an occasional smell drink at home, I’m fine with it.
Any thoughts?

I can’t honestly get cross with her about that.

Say “thank you, it was a lovely thought, but don’t do it again”

Did they ask for ID when they delivered it?

What a lovely thought. Be sure to say thanks!

Could think of worse things she could be doing tbh

It wouldn’t bother me at all.

It wouldn’t bother me, but then my DM used to send me to the shop for her fags !

I'm failing to really see a problem here.

@Hellocatshome no - it was left outside on the doorstep!

Ah well thats not great in itself.

Her intentions were pure so I would let her off. Enjoy your 🍷

I'd love it if my DD had the kindness and sense to do this. Not sure what the big issue is really.

I really think you’re missing the point and being deeply ungrateful.

Say thank you to her and mean it.

Christ, really?!

It's not like it's for her.

Unclench and say thank you?

My dd did this at the same age for Christmas and ordered me a gift from Hotel Chocolate with a bottle of their Gin in. It was lovely.

It was a lovely idea.I wouldn't be annoyed at ds if he did that.

She lied about her age on a website.. 😂😂😂😂 Unclench.. Jeesus.

If that's the problem your having with your teen then I'd call that counting stars. That's massively lucky.

Although I get what you are saying how easy it is to order under age.

Left on the doorstep?

Where did she order it from?

I think there's absolutely no need to be annoyed.

Massive over reaction to start a thread about your teen trying to do something nice for you.
But you’ve started two. Weird.

Agree.

Some folks just can’t help being horrible to their kids.

She did a nice thing, she meant no harm.

DS7 apparently always says to nanny (my mum) when they go to the shop together "we should get mummy some wine, she would like that" or has asked "can I get mummy some flowers please" no reason, not my birthday or anything he just likes buying me wine and flowers 😂
