With appropriate luck, the child will still find the toy satisfyingly obnoxious, and the parents will retain a particle of hearing.

(Just kidding, I can actually imagine it!). So anyway, I think it's time to invite MIL over to your house for a whole day of babysitting. And don't forget to hide ever other toy he owns. ;-) I would love to listen to a sound bite on that one, LOL. (Just kidding, I can actually imagine it!).

Our annoying toy was given to us by my own parents. I hate Tickle Me Elmo with a passion. I am pondering giving him a batteryectomy before too long. I feel your pain.

For me, it always seems worked-out until a few hours later when I rethink and realize what she might ACTUALLY have meant by this or that. Either way, I feel your pain. My husband's father presented our little one this year with a "My First Harley." A motorcycle that she (yes, SHE) can sit on and push herself around the house on. Comes complete with squacking cell phone, to reinforce all the rules of the road he is so fond of ignoring.

You see, there was this one Saturday morning after my son got his first musical instrument, when I uttered the now famous words "NO TUBA PLAYING IN THIS HOUSE BEFORE 9 O'CLOCK ON THE WEEKENDS!!!" Paybacks are indeed a bitch :-) Got my granddaughter a piano (baby sized) for christmas & I don’t feel at all guilty.
