Christmas gift

I am very close to me in laws and have known them for years to the point where I am now close to them in my own right regardless of DH.

I still get less substantial token gifts from them than DH and thats how it should be.

Sometimes they will get us both something for the house, or a voucher for a meal out together, but dh's gifts from his parents are still his

No it is her gift if she want to share OK but give it to her.

Agree with Monica

I wouldn't put his name on the card, better buy him a nice Christmas thingy. Maybe next year, if he's a good boy, he should get the card

Same as Teetime says, put his name on the card but the money is for her.She is your DGC and he isn’t.

Yes I agree add his name in the card and maybe an added edible treat and a bottle between them! I was married with two baby's at your granddaughters age and am still married 30 years later, it's only right to be respectful of their relationship.

Thank you, Jane Ainsworth.

I would juts put his name on the card.

DGD is young and the relationship is short. it might not last long
That made me smile monica.
At that age I had been married for nearly 3 years and still am
Riverworld I would just include his name in the card along with the cash.

Thanks Lynne59, that sounds like a nice idea.

Hi Monica, they are buying a house together, so it is pretty committed.

Hi Martha, yes they are buying a house together.

You could get them a gift to share - a meal for two, a spa experience, cinema tickets, etc. Groupon has offers. Last year, my eldest son got us (husband and me) a Groupon offer for 2 nights' bed and breakfast at a country inn. It cost £50, which was fantastic value. We went last weekend.

I would give your DGD her usual present and give him a bottle of wine or something like that. Your DGD is young and the relationship is short. it might not last long. If the relationship proves long lasting, in a couple of years, you may like to treat them as a unit for Christmas, but take your time at the moment.

Have you met her partner and accepted him into the family. I would put his name on the card if yes. They are a couple now. Your DGD would probably like to think he is included.

Thank you. I hope these replies are coming to the right person. I am totally new on here !

Thank you, a good idea

Hi Aggie, thank you for your reply. Yes, she buys me lovely thought out gifts.

I would add his name to the card and money. They have set up home together therefore a committed couple. Plus it's easier than having to think of a present for him.

Buy him a shirt and a bit of chocolate.

I wouldn't add him in , it is her present nor would I give him cash . I wonder is it time to rein back on the gifts . She is an adult , does she give you a gift , visit / take you out ?
