[quote=Anonymous]One more thought. Eight is definitely not too young to teach your son that manners and relationships are his responsibility.  Make sure your son has stationary and stamps, has a little book with the birthdays and addresses of his father (and his grandparents and his aunts/uncles) and understands that it is his job, within 24 hours of receiving a gift, to write a note.

It is his job, within the week of a birthday, to write a note or a card acknowledging it.

You would be saving your sons future spouse, if a woman, from the thankless task of doing all the gifts and cards for his family AND you would no longer be responsible for facilitating your Ex husbands Christmas gifts (weird) AND if your ExMiL isn’t a total goblin, I promise she will be appreciative of a timely card from your son.

And please before anyone shrieks that eight is too young, this was an expectation of me and my siblings (brother and sister) from six or legible handwriting, whichever occurred first. [/quote]
