If you gave your teen some cash to spend on her holiday

[differentname]

And she said thank you at the time of receiving it, would you expect/hope for another acknowledgment later along the lines of "spent the money at a restaurant, was great, thanks again"?

No

Thanks again?

Why is one 'thank you' not sufficient? Do you think the first time doesn't count or something?

Why did you give her the money?

No

My teen? Nope.
Nor would I expect a breakdown of what the money was spent on. Just the one thank you would be enough.

Of course not.

No

No. One thanks is enough.

No

No

No. I don't get why people expect multiple thank yous, thank yous in writing, etc. If they acknowledged it and said thank you when it was given, that's enough.

No, I might ask if my DD got anything nice with it though

Absolutely not.

No

Another no!

And another No.

No as I would assume it gets added to other holiday fund money and gets spent on multiple things

Definitely not.

No, are you my MIL? She expects 29 thank yous at intermittent stages for anything. Presents, cards, etc. It’s a total bore.

No of course not.
They thanked you for the gift, no need to explain how it was spent with an additional thank you.

No.

Not my teen, no. But if I gave some money to my teen godchildren or nephew then it would be nice to know if and when they put it towards something : eg postcard from Thailand, or e-mail with photo attached showing the bike they'd saved up for or whatever, or maybe a two-line text saying "it's gone in the bank and will be really useful at uni thanks".

It's not obligatory by any means but I'd hope my teen would make the effort to do that if she received money from aunts or godparents, as I think it's good manners and a thoughtful thing to do. And I hope she wouldn't take stuff like that for granted.

No. One thank you is enough.

No that would be ridiculous

No

No.
