[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is unusual but I would not be offended. The guests may have had an extremely busy week and not had a chance to pick something up. Or they may be going through a financial hardship. But they took the time to come celebrate with your child and that's what counts. While it's the norm for people to bring gifts, I also think it not good etiquette to expect a gift from guests. [/quote] +1 I wouldn't be offended if they didn't bring a gift - but yeah, I think it would be a little odd, esp if my kid notices. But there could be dozen reasons why they didn't, so no biggie. Their company is what counts. [/quote] +2 I’d think it strange but would not be upset in any way. My kid probably would not even notice. I do not know people’s circumstances and appreciate their attending more than anything. It would not make me, say, not invite the kid again either- I definitely still would. So no big deal. [/quote]
