If you had given your grandson for Xmas...

Apparently I've upset him. Effin' little snowflake

Well, no I wouldn't.

At least he's enjoying wearing it! I've bought things for my GC which have never seen the light of day.

Once you've given a pressie ya no longer own it!

As long as he's wearing the pesky thing, that's what matters.

He's being a bit snowflakey - that I agree with!

Say nothing !

Well, I might hold my tongue, but I wouldn't be buying him anything else like that.

No I wouldn't but what does that mean?

Actually, I'd be quite chuffed! Sorry, gknegirl.

Well I would be annoyed, but would I say anything, probably not if only to keep a good relationship. Could be tempted to on a face to face meeting, just to see him squirm a little bit ?

I never buy my DGSs clothes just send them the money to buy what they want.

If it already has a slogan on it, I suppose you can't blame his logic.
How old is he? I would be more surprised at his parents for allowing him to damage new, expensive clothing; bit like drawing on walls; once allowed one area, they draw everywhere.

No I wouldn't say anything. It was given as a present so let him do what he wants with it. Swear under you breath and keep calm.

I think I agree with nanasam, at least he’s wearing it, I hate to think how much stuff I’ve bought over the years that has never been used!

Try to think of it as “customising it” ?

It probably feels old to him by now - Christmas was ages ago.
Anyway, it's his, to do with as he wishes (although it seems a shame to me).
I would try to refrain from writing any comments on Insta - my MIL writes stuff on DDs posts and DD usually cringes. It's massively uncool for your Mum or your Nan to leave comments.

Yep. You're right. I think I knew all along I was being unreasonable. Sigh!

And yes, I do agree with you leyla. Bad granny alert!

ElaineI it was for one of these Extinction Rebellion demos. Apparently BP is the enemy.

Wouldn't bother me at all,his clothes his choice .I remember customising things back in the 60's and nobody blinked an eye .I was very into CND then my badge was fine for school but I wanted everyone to know and get involved ....lol

I would be a bit annoyed too gonegirl. But try not to leave messages on instagram as their friends will see them and laugh at them. That is probably what he is upset about, not the message itself.

I thought it might be that newnanny but his mum says it's not that. (Can't get much sense out of her tbh )

I will just have to let it go.

Yes, let it go Gonegirl, just bear it in mind next Christmas

My brain doesn't always engage before my mouth so I would have commented gonegirl
My grandchildren are very tolerant though and just roll their eyes

I agree with Kitty I would be thrilled he loved it so much to personalise it.

I'd be very proud that he was protesting ?
