[quote=Anonymous]I usually do 1 big toy gift (under $40) and a book (under $5 on sale) for my nephew (1.5 year old) It's not your job to provide extras for your nieces/nephews just because your childhood was different. It's really for the parents to determine that especially since it sounds like your sibling and their spouse does just fine for the kids. You don't "owe" repayment to your sibling for generous gifts you received as a kid. It's just very nice that your sibling was able to give you a special holiday when your mom couldn't. Don't play keeping up with the Jones when you have a budget and a baby. If your sibling didn't make as much and their child(ren) were lacking then yes, I understand the desire to provide back what was given to you, but that isn't the case here. It's ok.[/quote]
