[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If “any amount” then why not honor the culture in this small way? $54 is as easy as $50; $18 is as easy as $20. [/quote] A few years ago I gave $54 to my older son's friend and the mom said $18, $36, yes but $54 is silly just give $50. Since then that's what I have done. My other jewish friends agreed with her but what do others think? I grew up in a heavily jewish community, easiily went to 30 Bar/Bat Mitzvahs myself and never knew the $18 rule. In the mid 80's I think we gave $15 and to my very good friends an actual gift like a boom box, etc.[/quote] I grew up going to lots of bar/bat mitzvahs and the 18 rule for cash was something parents did but if just kids were invited we did a lot of things like gift cards to mall stores etc for whatever denominations they offered.
