[QUOTE="aeroeng, post: 490085, member: 6557"] If it were me I would minimize the present. I would hand make a lovely card (knowing full well he would not appreciate it), and get a small useful present. (clothing, book, organizer ect). When he complains about the sock equivalent, state that you love him, and care for him, but that until his behavior improves you simply will not focus on gifts. They are not unconditional. Don't react to his explosion, and repeat that you do love him. Anything more just adds to the complication and becomes something else to fight over. Good luck our thoughts are with you no matter what you do. [/QUOTE]
