[quote=Anonymous]I totally disagree. I have relatives (Southern) who send out "graduation announcements." Now THAT is a money grab. My MIL will send a kid she has not seen in 15 years $50, just to be polite or something! I think you are ascribing mal-intent where there is none. Maybe, rarely, the driving force is to get gifts. But why live life with that mentality? Even so... let's play this out. Family thinking about all the many costs associated with going to college. Kid says "Oh what about X?" Mom says, "Idk I think you will have to go without X. Or maybe you'll get some gift money for graduation you can put towards it?" Is this really the worst thing in the world and worth resenting someone over?[/quote]
