[quote=Anonymous]I understand that you like giving things, but I think you are going a little crazy with the gift giving. It seems like the kids get enough presents already from their family, any family that does gifts for all kids on just one of their birthdays so the others don't feel left out is going overboard. Also, the max price of $30 each gift is quite high! If you go and look at some toys that many kids would love (maybe not for their particular ages) you can find plenty that are between $8-20 on the high end. I think a $30 gift should be reserved to the ONE kids actual birthday present.

While the mom is definitely the one creating drama over the younger kids with the game, I honestly don't see the need for any of them to be getting all these gifts. This country is already so focused on materialistic items that you aren't helping with how the kids view things and think that they NEED items like this to be happy.

Most nannies I know generally go the other way, trying to show kids that they DON'T need to get the latest game, that a gift worth $5 can be just as good as one worth $30 etc. I can just imagine what these kids will be like when they are 16-18 yrs old. Expecting anything they want and that even people who aren't related to them will buy them stuff if they ask for it. [/quote]
