You asked for advice on whether you should give it to her or not, and I think you got your answer

Don't take offense to people offering other suggestions, a good parent is always looking for ways to improve on being a parent because frankly we could all do with some help and advice since none of us are perfect.

Suggestions are not criticisms of your parenting skills, it is in the nature of parents to want to help other parents...we love our children, we love all kids, we like to share what we have learned through the years through our own mistakes. Don't be insecure about it. Some of the best parenting, gift giving, activity advice I got was from other parents.

Your daughter is 7, you love her to pieces, you want to give her everything in the world, you want her to have the good life...there is nothing wrong in that. One parent telling another...skip the xbox, go for this instead is not meant to hurt your feelings....it is just advice from parents who have been through it a time or two (4 times for me). Take the advice, leave the advice, but don't get offended by it...that is just plain silly
