[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We don't send gifts for parent or sibling birthdays. We only send gifts for nieces and nephews (and there are only a total of 3 of these). [/quote]] This is the way in my family but not in my husband's. The gift thing on his side is EXHAUSTING. I have suggested making a change (how about an annual family donation to a charity?) and it's met with stony silence. They like to think they are a close family but it's a joke. They don't talk, aren't honest, don't listen, but heaven forbid you don't get that shitty gift from QVC every xmas. Gah. I guess this rant serves to say, PP, that if the family is stuck on this, it's often not worth trying to change.[/quote] Husband's family = husband's task. Either he keeps up his family traditions, or they don't happen. Easy. As for the OP: Nothing wrong with flowers! If they like getting flowers, well, there you go![/quote]
