[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just said “we throw a party to celebrate you. Every one is welcome whether they bring a present or not. We want them to know they don’t need to bring a gift. Some people might bring a gift and that’s fine too!” My kids have been fine with that explanation.[/quote] op - this is the best advice here - thank you. I think maybe the terminology is less 'no gifts please' and rather 'no gifts necessary'. I don't want to order people around either way, but I'd like people to not feel obliged at ALL and I'd like ds to understand that it's ok either way. [/quote]
