[quote=Anonymous]The problem, OP, is that it comes across as: my gift to you this year is that you get to spend time with MEEEEEE!!!! It’s just over the top narcissistic. If it’s family gathering time you care about, host the event. If it’s an activity that you think they really care about, give them a certificate to do it, no strings attached. Don’t make a gift to them revolve around you. And FWIW, I am usually in the camp of adult family members don’t even need to give each other gifts. Kids only would be fine. I’d prefer that over the idea of gifting “time together”, which sets up all kinds of expectations on the receiver.[/quote]
