[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks PP!  So glad I asked, I didn't know any of this.

I should be able to get him a suit before the ceremony.  He needs a new one anyway, I'm sure the one he has is too small.

Does the money need to be in the form of a check? Would cash not be acceptable?  How about a money order or cashiers check?

Money doesn't need to be in the form of a check. I usually give cash because I don't know if the child has a bank account etc. Just easier.[/quote][/quote]

Jewish parents set up a bank account well before their child turns 13. Jews save money, and give money as gifts for the living. This is why when someone Jewish says their parent died, you do not give them money. In other religions, money is given to pay for the funeral. Jews are savers, and have no problem paying for funerals because they plan ahead. Don't give cash, OP.[/quote]

Um, thanks for these tips but we're Jewish and cash/check/present is fine in our (perhaps more humble) neck of the woods. [/quote]
