I agree about the inherent value of each person and tailor presents toward my kids' individual interests and talents, but I do spend the same amount of money on each. Sometimes one gets an "equalizing" cash present, but I feel it is important to be totally fair in order to avoid hurt feelings. It might be different with more than 2 kids in the family, though. Thanks for participating in the Carnival of Family Life. This post was a great addition and I appreciate your support! On Monday, November 19, 2007, the Carnival returns home to Hawaii with <a href="http://islandlife808.com">Kailani</a> as our host! You can submit your entry until midnight (Pacific time) on Saturday, November 17, 2007, at <a href="http://www.jhsiess.com">Colloquium</a>. A great post.
