If you buy someone’s kid a toy for their birthday or a holiday, how long before you’re not offended to find out it’s been chucked?

It's a gift. If they don't like it I hope they find a good destination for it. Maybe somebody else will be happy with it.

I give it away, and then I don't really care anymore, unless the gift was expensive and specifically asked for.

I don't waste my time by being offended about things that I have no control over. I've added my positive contribution to the situation, do with it what you want.
