[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I hosted the party, my son’s good friend from school didn’t bring a gift. The parent came to pick him up and no gift. My son doesn’t seem to care but for some weird reason I am offended. Most probably because of my upbringing. I thought maybe it was more of a norm here? But I guess not! [/quote] did you read the other posts. Almost ALL of them say[b] it is rude to host a party and expect a gift [/b]and it is rude to attend a birthday party without a gift (unless the instruction says so). Which means [b]you [/b]are as rude as your son's friend's mom! I vote for she has a lot going on and just couldn't squeeze one more thing in. I've shown up at a party with a really crappy, nicely wrapped coloring book because of a confluence of bad events. I am sure the very gracious, always kind mom didn't think twice about it.[/quote]
