Do people still send Birthday cards?

Just curious...I love to send a birthday card!  Seems some don't...Is it a generational thing?  What are your thoughts?

I do, but I am "old-school" in many ways.

 

My dearest friends do as well.

I send birthdays cards to my son, husband, sister and my last living aunt. Of course those are the people who remember my birthday and send a card to me. I think it is generational, my son doesn't send cards to anyone but his father and me because he knows it's expected.

Absolutely!  And I love the pop-up greeting cards on the market now.  I love sending cards for all occasions!

I always send cards as does my sister and a few friends. I am 71.  I do receive cards from most friends but not from younger relatives.  I cherish written notes and cards from my grandparents, aunt, and my dad ( who died this year).  I dislike e- cards that to me show minimal thought.

I only send birthday cards to my mother, niece and nephew.  If I lived closer, I probably wouldn't.
