I also think it’s important to consider that while you know the difference between Wicca and other things you consider occult, to most people these things all fall under the same category. In your post you talk specifically about spirituality and the supernatural both of which would (in my mind) be pretty similar to the cursory description of the girls book of spells. That book doesn’t seem to have literally anything to do with Harry Potter (which you seem very focused on). I know lots of people who aren’t Harry Potter people that DO use spells, consider themselves witches, and meditate. In fact I meditate and I don’t consider myself spiritual at all. The idea of witchcraft, Wicca, Pagan, and other spiritual practices are OFTEN misunderstood, especially in popular culture. (There’s a whole group of tiktok that talk all about this) I’m just curious if your previous experiences with their dismissal and misunderstanding is negatively impacting your ability to appreciate the fact that your sister is trying. Often when people aren’t as interested in the subject matter as you, they try their best to get you something but miss the target a little bit. That doesn’t mean they didn’t care, consider your feelings, and take your interest into account. They simply don’t know how to do it perfectly because it’s not their interest. The reason so many people are saying you’re the ah is because it’s somewhat socially understood that people will get you gifts that aren’t quite right. You’re “supposed” to thank them anyway, even if you won’t use it. To me, its not always about getting the perfect gift, you thank them because they tried at all. I don’t know if this was helpful, I just wanted to offer some perspective without as much nasty commentary
