What would you do??

My MIL has bought my son a rubbish version of the main Christmas present on his list without being asked or telling anyone she was going to. She has then told me to make sure no one else gets him one. I'm just upset/annoyed as my ds has his heart set on this and he'll be disappointed and also will be disappointed when he doesn't open it first thing. My partner is not bothered at all and just says 'we know for next time' what does that even mean? Am I crazy for thinking she has no right to decide to buy him his main Xmas present??

Buy him his main present and give it to him first thing. Serves her right. X

I would just ask her to return it , tell her you’ve already got it for him long ago so can’t be returned and you don’t want him to have a duplicate. I wouldn’t get into which version was better x

I'd also be annoyed at this. Maybe your partner let slip what he wanted? Is that what he means? . I'm guessing it's too late for you to say you already bought it for him?

I’d do something like @Natalie’s suggestion
