If the conversation feels uphill, that probably means that deep down they don't value bitcoin and they see it as a joke/toy/fad.
But if you still want to give them bitcoin without the hassle, I suggest giving physical bitcoin (a paper wallet, Open Dime, Sats Card, physical "coin"...). That way you can make the gift, it will look nice, they can self-custody and you won't have to explain anything about self-custody.
One of my sisters already owns some. She bought it on an exchange and I assume she left it there. I don't think it's a lot but I assume it's gone down in dollar value because she bought it near the top. I don't think she sold it. For her I think she at least gets that it's a long term investment.
The other two have heard of Bitcoin but I doubt they know much more than the general public.
