But I don't think I could stop myself from giving something to our niece and nephew until they get a job. In this economy, that may be a while. <br /><br />"...Have a sort of sense of entitlement..." I like that. That says it all.<br /><br />Q&BQuilt+Bitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15239853538032780202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8194284948188360746.post-4188723405736024932012-12-24T09:24:37.431-05:002012-12-24T09:24:37.431-05:00I have the same issues with my Nieces and Nephews....I have the same issues with my Nieces and Nephews. I have nine of them in four different families. Four of these children are under 7 years of age, but the rest are fully functioning teens. They are all spread across the US, most I only see once or twice a year. In the past twenty years of gifting them I can only remember getting one thank you note from a niece. Ironically she was thanking me for writing paper that I had sent her. My own children seldom write thank you notes, although my eldest will now if prompted. So I cant really complain too much. Sometimes I wonder if they have a sort of sense of entitlement to the birthday and holiday gifts. I have decided that 21 is the cut off age for them all. Unless they are getting married, there will be no more gifts from me.<br />Tracy Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00970200716143318934noreply@blogger.com
