My husband and I bought our granddaughter a wedding gift from her registry. She reached out and accused us of being cheap after getting the wedding present. Now, she is upset and threatens to cut us off because we didnât give her the cash gift that we presented to each of our grandkids a day before their wedding. Iâm in my 70s, a proud grandmother to five amazing grandkids: three women and two men. I adore my grandkids and often show up for them emotionally and financially. Whenever they have celebrations or hard times, they know that they can count on me. Grandparents with their grown grandkids , Eloise, got married last October. My husband, who is also in his 70sand I have a tradition for our grandkids. We buy a small gift from the wedding registry, usually the cheapest item, and then, the day before the wedding, we give them a check for $40,000. We hope theyâll use it for a house, but itâs ultimately their choice. We also ask them to keep it a secret, considering our large family. Until now, everyone has respected this request. This time, we sent an air fryer to our youngest granddaughter, the cheapest thing on her registry. Eloise called us, livid, accusing us of being cheap. I remember picking up her call and she didnât even say hi, she just started ranting, âSeriously, Grandma? I just got your gift. An air fryer?Thatâs the cheapest thing you could find on my registry!â I was taken aback because as much as the air fryer was the cheapest on their registry, I still thought itâd be useful to them, so I told her that. Eloise kept on complaining, âUseful? Come on, you know you can do better than that. Everyone knows you have the money. I just canât believe youâd be this cheap with me. Itâs embarrassing.â In this heated moment, I told her, âYes, youâre right. We are cheap, old, and useless. The only thing you DIDNâT know is that the day before the wedding, we were going to gift you a check for $40,000.â I revealed this in an attempt to explain to Eloise about the cash gift we usually give our grandkids before the wedding but she was so angry at this point,that she wasnât listening to a thing I said.
