Today, I received the 'special' present my mother had sent me for my 21st birthday. I opened the box and saw that my mother had picked out, accessorized and shipped to me, in college, a doll. FML

Don't be such a spoiled brat.

Break it open and see if there's money inside. No, but you should keep it, it's a gift from your mom and it's special to her. Keep it in a box in your closet, but when she comes over, put it up on your dresser.

I agree. I am so sick of people who think they need to be treated like royalty just because it's their birthday. it may be conventional to give gifts to the birthday person but no one has to do it.

At least she put time and effort into your birthday present. I would love for my mom to do that.

your mom rules. you are SUPPOSED to use your college brain to figure out you can hide BOTTLES OF BOOZE in the doll, thus smuggling the party anywhere you go, even if outside booze is banned.

So what...? Just be grateful she took her time to get you a special gift. If you take care of it maybe you can give it to your child in the future.

It's probably just for decoration. Don't be a bitch, at least you got something.
