Should I accept this gift from my grandparents? please do read what i have to say, i need advice?

Question

They don’t really like me, just coz I have a few luxuries,I am always thought of as spoilt and intolerant
My intolerance comes up only on bad work, not because I am arrogant, moreover they are forever arguing with me, I always speak rationally, whereas they always go with traditions and don’t like anything that is not from their nation
What I’m trying to say is: now, it is their 50th marriage anniversary, and according to customs they are giving me something just coz I’m their grand daughter
I only value true love, not money or gifts that are given in the name of religion (and that too its an expensive one)
Since they have come(my parents are celebrating it in our city): my father has started becoming more angry with me and even they back up the feelings, I’m not like that!
I don’t want to accept a gift that is given out of no true love, and I have no problem in refusing politely, should I do this please?
I’m not at all happy to publicize these matters,but I wanted some advice

Answer 1

I think if you refuse their gift it will only give them more reason to say you're spoiled and intolerant. Accept it, thank them and maybe give them a small gift in appreciation. They are your grandparents and it's a special occasion.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Graciously accept the gift. No matter what the motivation, tradition or love, they wanted to give it to you. A polite person would recognize their desire to give a gift and respect it. They want to do it. It will make them feel happy if you accept it.

And, like a previous answer said - if you feel that it is extravagant, devoid of meaning for you, or if it makes you feel 'dirty' having it, make it better by turning around and passing it on to someone in need.

Answer 3

In order to keep peace, I think you should except the gift then if you still feel the same way give it to someone less fortunate than yourself. That way you are making your parents happy and your grandparents happy. Sometimes we just have to do things we don't want to.

Answer 4

You should call your grandparents and polity state you do not want any gifts. If they insist smile, say thank you and when they leave give the gift to your father.

Answer 5

just take the gift and quit causing problems. What the hell harm is there in accepting a gift. then write a thank you note expressing how touched you were by what ever in the hell they gave you.

Answer 6

If you want the gift take it but if you don't want t because its not out of true love don't take the gift personally i wouldn't accept but it is not my decision its yours if you want it have if you don't want it don't have it

Answer 7

Hey you selfish puck, give grandparents respect and love, they by their very lives,(by raising your parents properly) have ensured your very cushy nest. They do love you, you do not realize what your actions are saying and you don't understand love. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it! Old people would rather shoot themselves in the leg than give up hard earned money----take that to the bank---its love--and your a grand smuck!
