Off Topic Family rules

Kinell that's taking the piss.

Stop providing easter eggs for anyone who isn't your own kid as soon as they hit secondary school.

Own kids, maybe til 16 if you're still talking to them.

Same for christmas pressies.

I tried that with our kids btw, for birthdays too, the missus wasn't having that. Gotta let her have her little victories.

18 though? GTF. Thats a bloody liberty that is and no mistake.
 
Need a bit of opinion about families , my wife and I have completely different ones from each end of the spectrum and I need somebody from somewhere in the middle to advise ..... What is the cut off for buying niece / nephews Easter eggs? .. My nephew is 18 now, so in my book that makes him an adult and withdrawn from the egg circuit , my wife's family still receive things like this from Aunties and uncles even when they are in their forties with own kids etc , but I think this is a bit odd , surely when my nephew is 30 and married , I still don't have to go round and ask him to choose flake or cadburys buttons? .. What are the rules ?, I haven't really had any uncles / aunties since I was a child so I can't use that as a guide


Are you on drugs?
 
Eggs should be bought early for all. Partners, nephews, nieces, sons, daughters, aunts, uncles & friends.

In the run up to Easter you should test a few until there's only enough left for sons & daughters who are aged under 16 & one for the partner.

Don't be a miser, buy them decent ones. You'll enjoy them more.

It's the thought that counts.
