[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's expected to bring a gift to a kid's birthday party unless it says no gifts. Having said that though, I think it's also expected that birthday parties are no gifts these days. So while it's a bit "rude" to not bring a gift to a birthday party unless indicated that it's okay, it's also a bit "rude" to invite/expect people to come to an event and buy you something. Honestly we try to avoid attending a 'gifts expected' party unless it's one of my kids' best friends. I don't need more stress.[/quote] Excuse me?? That's a weird comment. If it does not mention "no gift", then bring a gift. Why is that rude? I even ask the Mom what the kid would like if kid or family is close to us; I want kid to get something they would like. I mean, the parents are spending hundreds of dollars on the party, what's the big deal with a $ 20 gift? And I am a single Mom of two kids, and do not have too much $$$$. [/quote]
