[quote=Anonymous]My sister-in-law sent an email to the family that started out something like, "As you know, [9yo nephew's] birthday is coming up and here is his wish list." The first item on the list was two $200 iTunes gift cards. (The rest of the list consisted of two video games, a movie, a professional sports team outfit). This just really turned me off, and I am wondering if others feel the same or if I'm just being a sourpuss. It turns me off that she sent a list in the first place. It also turns me off that one of the items on the list totaled $400. I don't even spend that much on my own children. If my nephew is actually wishing to receive two $400 gift cards, of course that's fine -- he can wish for whatever he wants. But if I were his mother, I wouldn't transmit that wish to the rest of the family. I'd probably try to explain to my son that it's a lot to ask. Maybe a $20 gift card, but not two $400 cards.[/quote]
