CHATBOX (kuno kasi walang chatbox sa tsikot)

[_Cathy_]

yes, i do. in cash or in kind. whatever i perceive their needs are.
ang hindi ko na inabutan this year, are my doctor-specialist nieces and nephews.

in truth,
it is easy to be gallant, if one can afford...
those that can not afford, special abot samin yan.

I think doc pag working or may own family na hindi na cash talaga hehehe.

But then again my Aunts still give me cash so I guess it really depends, pero for me as a general rule pag working wala ng red envelope. In fact, kasali na sila sa nagbibigay dapat.

if i can't decide what to give them, because i can't identify with their age group, i give something universally appreciated, like cash.

Do you still give gifts/cash to those that don't acknowledge or say thank you?

There are SOME kids/teens that I don't get to see on Christmas/Bday so I just send the cash/gift to their parents. May iba na in 10 years or since magkaisip I never got a thank you through text/viber/messenger. I don't know if I am being petty or immature but since I've been jobless since 2020 and I am on a tight budget now parang I don't feel like giving anymore to those that don't even say thank you

I really don't get parents that do NOT teach their children to say thank you. I was an EXTREMELY SHY KID growing up and I used to dread when my parents would make me call Titos/Titas to say thank you. We also have tons of thank you cards (my parents even have personalized cards made) to give out to people. I know that people rarely do cards nowadays (but I still do) Even with my own blood na Aunt ko that is like a mother to me I still give thank you card and even at my age I am still reminded by my Mom and Aunts to send thank you cards and gifts (for those people that entertained me on my last trip) Now it is so LITTLE EFFORT to message di pa magawa.

Isa pa yung kids ng driver namin na every year would visit us para mamasko. I've seen them grow up! SINCE the pandemic 2020 I only give the cash to their father. Also every time I come home from a trip, out of 4 kids, 1 lang, yung bunso lang nagse send ng thank you e ka FB ko naman sila lahat. So now parang I only want to give sa bunso (16 yrs old) and say I don't have a job so si bunso na lang may pamasko :P Petty ba?

Same lang tayo, tinatandaan ko mga hinde marunong mag thank you. Pakiramdaman ko kasi pag hinde nag pasalamat eh iniisip Nila obligation ko mag regalo Kaya they don’t feel they need to acknowledge. So wala na next time.

I'm curious, ano reaction nila? Yung mga may kasamahan sila na binigyan mo pero sya hindi na? Do they ask why? Do you tell them?

yup tanda ko talaga, difference lang natin I still keep on giving in spite of not getting an acknowledgement, BUT now I think I'm done being that way.

Anyway, I told my Mom my dilemma and she said it's all or nothing so I didn't give na lang sa bunso. Sorry nadamay siya sa mga kapatid niya na hindi marunong mag thank you.

Pinakagusto ko yung may video or photo pa saying thank you. Nakaka tuwa bigyan ganyan.

yes doc. I told our driver na wala akong work so bawi na lang ako next year, but then again I've been jobless since 2020 I just gave to him and his wife. My Mom gave naman for them and the kids pa rin.

May inaanak ako nag-message sa lahat ng chat apps.. Same direct message sa FB Messenger, Viber, pati na din sa group chats..
"Mamamasko po -"
Di ko alam kung ano ba magandang response.. Ang una talaga inisip ko, hindi ko gusto yung approach.. Pangalawa, tutal ginawa na nya na ganun ang approach sana nilagyan nya na ng GCash Info or kung anuman.. Parang hindi na ako kumportable na magreply pa ako.. Hindi kasi ako nagbibigay ng gift sa mga inaanak ko na hindi ko nakikita or makikita sa personal [emoji28].. Gusto ko may interaction ako sa bata.. Ang awkward na parang naningil online ng pamasko.. Di ko talaga nagustuhan.. Ang dami ko na inaanak, kung lahat sila online hihingi para maka-comply ako.. Parang magbabago na pananaw ako sa pagiging ninang.. Hahahahahaha [emoji23]

Wala pa naman nagtatanong. Pag meron I’ll tell them the reason. Saka usually pinapaunta ko sa bahay para kunin yun regalo nila.

Compared to pre-pandemic - mas kaunti sa amin kagabi.
Wala pa yatang 1am halos wala na sa neighborhood.
Motor with loud exhausts and videoke na lang natira.

[Devastator]

Happy New Year. Feels so good to light it up again after over 2 years of silence.

[yubby24]

Happy New Year tsikot! Generally, peaceful naman nairaos ang new year dito sa lugar namin. Wala masyado nagpaputok. Ako sa loob lang. Mostly motor at videoke lang din ang ingay sa amin this year.
