I have just read a post on Mums net,where there seems to be a lot of resentment at being expected to write thank you cards. Well if I had taken the trouble to send a cheque I don't expect to wait 6 months for a thank you!(this happened recently,the cheque was a wedding gift!) I do also expect my grandchildren to acknowledge any gifts they receive either by email or text or even a phone call.....am I being unreasonable?

With our two estranged grandchildren I haven't known for 7 years if their 'mother' has even given them the gifts our family have sent. I even enclosed a lovely set of notelets and a book of stamps a few years ago but nothing.
