[quote=Anonymous]This ship has sailed. Your dh and grandparents should have taught him from about 5 that you give gifts to others on Christmas and birthdays. My kids have always picked out gifts for others (thoughtful not expensive). Gifts are not their love language either. When I married dh (25)he only making gifts for his parents (he works with wood and is somewhat talented) and giving his grandma a York peppermint patty. Over the years my parents have been giving us fancier gifts and bigger checks. I refuse to play the nuclear arms race with gifts so I still give thoughtful gifts around $100 and make gifts with the kids. They’re welcome to only give me $100 in return or nothing. [/quote]
