Millennial parents say well-meaning boomers are gifting junk to their grandkids — and it's time to stop

I definitely wouldn't give the gifts back. I don't have any grandchildren. but I think that would hurt my feelings. I think I'd love to take my grandkids shopping after giving them some money. One of my aunts did that for me when I was a kid--and I still even remember what I bought--some Lincoln Logs!

I overdid it with my kids, but most buys were at yard sales. My parents weren't wealthy, so Christmas was a big deal for me. I loved looking through those Sears and Roebuck toy catalogs!
