Gift Giving Appreciation

[kidlove]

Yes this has happened to me a few times. "Gift Giving" may be your love language, or one of them. Being your love language you do it with the deepest amount of thought and the gift really comes from your heart. Maybe these "no thank-you-ers" don't speak the smae "love language", so to them, a gift is a gift is a gift! ha ha OR and this is a big OR.......most kids today are so "spoiled" they get and are given sooooooo much by their parents that it is just one more "given" thing, so they don't even acknowledge your "care"......OR.....m ost people just don't use their manners or teach their children to use their manners. Either way....know how you feel!!!

We do it because we want to, not because we'll get a "Thanks", I have to remind myself after an ungrateful kid leaves the party I just threw him, or I do something "out of my way" for a parent...and they just walk out the door, like it was owed to them. I did it because I wanted to.
