Need Advice with Gifts

SAM55 · ‎07-24-2017

Really not sure if I'm right or wrong on this, so I'm throwing this out to my QVC cohorts.

I think a gift is a gift. What the receiver does with it after it is given to them is their choice.

You already know the answer...once you give a gift what's done with it is no longer your business. My advice is cut your gifting in half & put the money saved away for the children your youngest son may have. If I had one thing to do over, I'd put more money in the college fund for my grandkids, the money spent over time on clothes & toys is a waste of $$$.

@SAM55 Rather than edit your post so those of us reading it have no idea what you were talking about, you could have (and still can) hit the "Report Inappropriate" area of your post and ask the moderators to delete the whole thing.

Are we supposed guess or use our powers of ESP to devine what this post is about? It appears you edited, the post out. You should have deleted the entire post.

@SAM55

Taking a cue from the first two posts, I’d say I agree with what the posters have written.

When we give the DGCs a gift these days, it ends up on the floor, contributing to the mess their parents would rather not deal with. I get that.

DD has suggested tickets to zoos or museums as gifts, so the family can go more places.

I too would like to start a college fund for them. What a great idea!

I think our children’s generation does not want to be bogged down in material things.

We started 529 plans for our grandkids....college savings plans. You can contribute as little or as much as you wish each month. Your bank can set it up for you or you can go to your banking website and do it online.
