Is it ok to give his kid a gift?
| Thu, 10-09-2008 - 8:20pm |
I'm M w/o kids and my AP is single with 1 (4yrs old). We have a LDA (400miles) and he says he will be in my area almost every week the months of Nov and Dec for the holidays. Yippee! (His parents live out here..they are very close and his mom is having surgery. ) The only reason that is keeping him from moving back to LA is his son. Anyways..my AP has said that he would like me to meet his son. Would it be appropriate to bring him a gift the first time I meet him? If its ok..what kind of gift would be appropriate?
thanks for your input.

AP's parents live by you???
i don't see anything wrong with it..my ap is m with 2 kids, one with W and one with another woman 21 years ago..he gives my son money, gifts, food, goes to his games, practices, advice and etc..i think it's harmless if it's just a toy or a gift a small child would like...if the child was a little older and he was a single dad that had custody, and the child was completely vulnerable to wanting a mommy in his life and you guys weren't serious, or you weren't willing to make a committment to the kid, although you're married i'd day heck naw(that was a mouthful..sorry i get wordy and can ramble)
..but the kid is 1, and he won't know the difference right now..he'll just appreciate that you gave him a gift....get me....go for what you know..i think they like elmo and diego from dora and fisher price little people at that age..i have a 1 year old nephew......(don't really know about the youngins my youngin is darned near a grown man)
