[quote=Anonymous]I grew up watching my mother stress over shopping for all CHristmas', birthdays, anniversaries. teach appreciation week, other holidays for both her family and my dad's (her in-laws). SHe would become cranky, snappy and I hated feeling attached for XYZ just because she was stressed out for having to do it all... In my first year of marriage, I told DH that if he wanted to give his family gifts or cards, he was responsible to the whole thing.He would have to buy, wrap, send... well - he could use the collection of stamps or wrapping paper I bought. ;) We've been married 20 years and I think he sent CHristmas cards to his family 1 or 2 years. He calls his mother on her birthday and Mother's Day but that's about it. His choice....His family...[/quote]
