I had no idea stopping was a thing. I guess I am spoiled! I’m 43 and my parents still send me a heartfelt card and a gift (nothing major, but nice) every year. And I do the same for them. They do the same for my 2 siblings as well.

I am 54 and still get one from my mom. I think it is more for her than for me as I do not need her check but of course I appreciate the thought.

Why would you stop? I've always received and have given nice gifts. I would be so bummed to not get a present from my parents.

I'm 54 and my mom still sends me a birthday present. So I'd say never.

My parents never stopped. They died when I was 35 and 39. I don't plan to stop with mine either; they are 24 and 19.

My kids are in their 20s and still get them gifts for bdays and Christmas. I always ask them what they want and sometimes it’s money.

My parents stopped when we were 18. My in-laws still do it though.

I still buy my kids gifts and they are early 30s. Maybe I wouldn't buy as many if they weren't at home to celebrate every year.
