[quote=Anonymous]Jewish mom here. I'm really scratching my head at some of these monetary judgmental responses. We also know that the bar/bat mitzvah is about celebrating the rite of passage that a child is now an adult in the jewish community and can now fully participate in jewish life and rituals. The actual mitzvah, or doing something good for someone else, is a huge part of the rite of passage. So what does the monetary amount of the gift have to do with any of this????? It means nothing within the context of the bar/bat mitzvah. A gift is a gift. The gift is an acknowledgement that you are an adult in the community. $18 is a chai and a lovely gift. For those of you calling $18 cheap, perhaps you need to remember what the bar/bat mitzvah is really about. *Hint*---it's not about the party or the amount of the check.[/quote]
