[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So OP, as you can tell from the responses, some people see these parties as gifting occasions from everyone. [b]While others think expecting gifts from peers in this instance is tacky.[/b] [/quote]

Guess we see where you stand….

No, the choices aren’t as you laid them out. The choices are some believe gifts should be given and some don’t. Who said anything about expecting gifts and it being tacky? This is whether gifts should be given.

PS they should

PPS it is the grad announcements that are tacky!

Absolutely, I'm not shy about this opinion at all. The fact that adults will roll up in here and say that kids should give other kids gifts for the exact same accomplishment they themselves just achieved is grubby and tacky in my opinion. I'm not a fan of the graduation announcements either, but at least they are targeted at the head of household. If you are a parent hosting a graduation party for your kid and have allowed them to invite their friends to roll through (which is what often happens because there are multiple parties) and expect gifts from the kids who are invited without their parents? That's tacky.
