[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, it’s *subjectively* gross to *you*. And that’s just fine. You can elect simply not to get one.

I don’t think Birkin Push Present lady did herself any favors bragging about spending $20k on hers, but plenty of women, myself included love a gift to commemorate the birth of a child and wear those items happily. [/quote]
It's objective, hon. Making birthing a child a transactional event is gross.[/quote]

Me: reasonable minds can differ. 
You: my opinion is fact.

[quote] The gift I received after the birth of each of my children was....the child herself. A beautiful human being. That's all I needed. I guess you're just far more materialistic than I am.[/quote]

My child is the greatest gift I have ever received. My [b]push present[/b] was to commemorate a major life event - no different than the earrings my husband surprised me with when I graduated from law school, the ring he bought me when he asked me to marry him, or the ring he gave me the actual day we got married. It’s fascinating how all of those except the push present are acceptable.

Of course, you’re entitled to your own opinion, but resorting to name calling is petty, immature, and a poor argument tactic. [/quote]

Honestly, I think it's the "push present" term. It's not likely that if you said it was a gift you received to commemorate the birth of your child," anyone would have blinked an eye. But if you called your wedding ring the "spread 'em present" he got you, some people are going to find that both transactional and déclassé. YMMV, of course.[/quote]
