[quote=Anonymous]I can't get over that stepmom believes its in her right to dictate how stepson needs to behave in HIS OWN grandparents' house. I am the type of person who always brings a hostess gift but if I'm going to my own parents or grandparents' homes, I don't worry about it. Those are the places anyone should feel the most comfortable regardless of if they're 5 or 55 and no one should have formalities or worries about breaking "rules" around things like gifts with their own family. If the grandparents and father actually cared about the stepson's lack of gift-giving, they would have stopped giving him things long ago. But they don't OP, because they love their child/grandchild unconditionally and that means not requiring the condition of a reciprocal gift. [/quote]
