[quote=Anonymous]^^ And we won't. I don't give gifts to teens or young adults who don't have the courtesy to write notes, and that includes my nieces. My kids have always written notes, even if all they could do was draw a little picture or trace their hands. Always. And, guess what? Everyone remembers. When we sent out high school graduation announcements I was surprised and astounded at how many friends and acquaintances sent DC lovely gifts and gift cards. Several were over $200. $2000 from grandparents. People were extremely generous. I wasn't expecting anything. And I think it is because they remember that DC always wrote them to say thanks for any acts of kindness or gifts. It's now ingrained with both kids. If someone takes the time to send you something, the least you can do is acknowledge it with a note that takes 7 minutes max. to write.[/quote]
