[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 225807, member: 1233"] I am not sure what advice to offer. It really would depend on family traditions, the reason you are not giving gifts, etc... If you are not giving gifts because the cost of the wedding deposits, maybe you should gently explain this prior to a family gathering, esp if you will be very uncomfortable if she makes a scene. If you are not giving gifts because you do not feel close to her, it probably won't help you become closer to her. If you are just cutting back everywhere, that is something else. There are just so many reasons, feelings and situations that are or could be involved that it is tough to give advice with-o more information. I am sorry you do not have a good relationship with her. It sounds very painful. [/QUOTE]
