[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What annoys me is the wild swings in the gifts. One year it is a pair of running shoes, another it is a check for serious money, another it might be a $50 amazon gift card. Their income doesn't vary so I don't get it. Are we being rewarded or punished for our behavior during the year?[/quote] My MIL definitely gives gifts based on how much she likes or dislikes you at the time. The whole thing is so stupid, I don't need anything from her, but I'm not going to sit there and watch her other DIL unwrap her new laptop or coach bag while I've been given a $20 teapot. We no longer participate in the stupidity. She can send wherever gifts she wants, we send cards and pictures of the kids. [/quote]
