[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly this year the ship has sailed if you’ve already had the conversation. Perhaps you can suggest that next year instead of exchanging gifts you can go out together and enjoy an event. Get show tix, Nutcracker, a sports event, or even just a dinner. We started doing this with my brother and SIL and it’s become a fun tradition. We all pay our own way and just enjoy being together and splurging on something we probably wouldn’t do just as a couple.[/quote] This is a wonderful idea! This is OP and if only I can get my DH on board. He feels he owes his mother this. That’s fine, but why the hell cant he make a decision on his own! [/quote] So just start giving her the gift of an experience (even better if you can send just him with his mother! :D ) and if she wants to “exchange” a gift, she can buy a dinner beforehand.[/quote]
