[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn't go to other kids' birthday parties when we were young because we didn't have the money to buy a present. [/quote] Seriously? I was dirt poor and we just bought a softcover book or regifted one of our birthday presents. We didn't decline the invite.[/quote] Great! We did not do that. We also did not have birthday parties ourselves so we certainly didn't have our own presents to regift. If you were "dirt poor" you were certainly poorer than us, because we went to a private school! But that's where all our money went and there was no extra for frills like birthdays. My parents were proud and we're just not up to navigating the social scene with the wealthier people we went to school with, so we just didn't. [/quote]
