[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$50 is really too little, IMO. I grew up in a wealthy area in NY, and got bat miztvah'd in 1989. I think ONE friend gave me $72, two sisters gave me a gold bracelet, and everyone else gave $90 or $108. So to give $50 NOW, seems way too low. FYI, if your kid isn't close with the kid who invited them, they don't have to go (and thus, don't have to give a gift). [/quote] DC is not NY. I think 36 is plenty if you kid is not close and 54 is good if closer. Some kids certainly give more, but by no means should people feel obligated to. Some gave 15 or 18 and that's fine too.[/quote]
