[quote=Anonymous]As others have said, usually the parents take the lead in nudging kids to buy or make gifts for parents and siblings. In many families, siblings don’t exchange gifts - but are included in the family gifts. I think you’re expecting way to much. She is not your peer, not part of your generation, not an adult. If this really matters to you, ask her father to take the lead. Note, in most families, unless there is dire need, all expenses re usually paid by the parents — except for some recreational expenses. Imdon’t think you would be wrong to do something other than her request. I do think you’re wrong in your tit for tat attitude. She’s a kid. You’re a parent. Gifts aren’t supposed to balance out. If your attitude comes through in your comments here, it really makes me wonder what her experience is like — and Not in a good way. [/quote]
