[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I swear there is a crazy divide between people who live in the suburbs in huge houses and people who live in the city in apartments like me. No gifts is the norm. It's fine. [/quote] OP here - I live in a suburb in a big house and we've been to both no gift and no mention of gifts parties and it's very rare for people to bring gifts to no gift parties. People follow rules here. Maybe the nasty PPs are private school moms? Really wealthy moms? I have no idea. This type of nasty behavior is not normal in our upper middle class suburb. [/quote] I think the people who insist on gifts are first generation and were raised with a different culture (where gift giving has more meaning) OR were raised poor and therefore feel self-conscious about showing up without a gift. That’s my working theory.[/quote]
