[quote=Anonymous]It was rude but that’s really the issue. My mom sends my kids 1000 every bday for us to put in their 529s. They do call and say thank you and I think they do understand and appreciate it to some extent (they are close to college age now) but my mom always wants them to be more effusive and enthusiastic about it than they act about it. They appreciate it but it’s kind of like a given to them at this point. She does give them other gifts too although not always consistently, but she’s not a great gift giver and often doesn’t select gifts well for them. I’ve kind of coached them on this over the years. We say thank you, send a note, etc…yes, grandma isn’t great at picking out gifts you’d actually like. [/quote]
