[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't sound like they're trying to save on their vacation. I think the gift cards make it kind of fun for the kid to be able to pick souvenirs, blow it on turkey legs, or whatever. The parents can say -- do what you want, it's your gift card -- and maybe the kid learns about managing the balance and making decisions about what is worth spending it on. [/quote] Exactly. If you're a [u]negative[/u] person, you will be appalled by the gift card request, gossip about it, and create drama. If you're a [u]positive[/u] person, you may think the request itself was tacky, but can see how the gift cards would be better than a bunch of random presents the kid doesn't want/need. I think OPs reaction says more about her and her view of this kid/family.[/quote]
