AIBU to expect a Thankyou for a gift?

[PeppasNanna]

Do you expect to be thanked when you send friends or family gifts for birthdays or Christmas?

People should ALWAYS say thank you for as gift. It is basic manners and not doing it is fucking ignorant

Hear hear.

It's such basic manners that I'm astonished anyone should ask.

Of course you should say thank you for a present someone gives you.

Furthermore, you should make sure your children learn this basic courtesy too.

Because once they get into the real works those are the sort of expectations other people will rightly have, and your DC will be judged accordingly.

IMO it's as obvious as teaching them to use a loo or cutlery.

Yes yes yes! My daughter turned 3 yesterday & has learned to always says thanks for presents coz it's just RUDE if you don't. It can be hard to find/afford/presents & timely getting them so we're always totally psyched when people think of us.

Not a note necessarily but at least a text. If I don't open it in front of whoever gave it, I always thank via text/phone

YANBU. I don't expect a note but some form of acknowledgement is absolute basic manners.
