[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. Like I said, I have no problem with them not giving money or stuff, especially now that kids are older. I was just wondering how common it is in other families for there to be no gifts of any kind after a certain point in age? And for the record we are big on Thank You notes, so that shouldn't be an issue for them.[/quote] My grandmother stopped giving gifts to grandchildren when they turned 18. She had a bunch and was living on a fixed income, so even when she gave gifts, they were very small. Her grandchildren all adored her and thought she was the most wonderful grandmother ever. She was always welcoming, went to every graduation or birthday she was invited to, and was a great cook who always made your favorite meal and special treats when you came to visit. I bet not one of us remembers any gift she gave, but we all remember how much she loved us. [/quote]
