Re: Question About Gender Reveal Party

‎09-24-2016 06:59 PM

It's not my thing, but that's ok.  I'm older and no babymaking going on in my small circle.  Smiley Happy

 

At least it's not a gift grab. hehe - But I wouldn't bring a gift and make everybody else feel bad or embarrassed that they didn't.   Some folks will bring a gift even with very specific 'no gifts' requests, but that doesn't make it right.  I guess they have to make it about them.

 

It's good that you ask, to make sure you don't do something inappropriate.

Yep, I was one of those whose first thought was something transgender. The guest of honor shows up in a raincoat, whips it open and - surprise - let's celebrate! I then remembered one of my young co-worker's whose wife is having a baby just mentioned that he and his wife were having such a party. I think they are just inviting parents, grandparents and siblings. I suppose if I were going to one of these, I'd just bring something from the bakery. After all, I anticipate a shower gift, and a gift at the birth. Honestly, I would rather keep attendance at this sort of event to my own grandchildren.
Do the math.
