| My mom has this pattern of being the laziest gift-giver she will just kind of check and mail it to us. She is sometimes suggested we go on some kind of outing but it's always I have to do all the research. Meanwhile she expects me to give her a really elaborate presents that require a lot of work to create and customize. I'm ready to throw in the towel and just cut her a check. |

| Well if the two of you are just sending each other checks that's silly. Why not just agree to both stop? |
