It's an inappropriate comment when a broke down car is a financial crisis, I agree. But I'd understand that she wants to give you presents in person - what's wrong with that? It's fun to see someone open a gift you got for them, and makes the act more meaningful, rather than something obligatory. And I agree about gift cards. I know for most people they are the "best" gift, but I think personalized gifts are better, and growing up I was raised that gift cards should always be a very last resort because of that.

Yeah... from what you wrote her sentiments sound like mine. Minus the comments about the car situation and insensitive jabs about money, that's bad. Just the present related stuff, I understand.

My brother and I got my mom a Kindle Fire for her birthday last month. I couldn't be there to give it to her but he was, so he put me on speaker phone when she opened it. I got to hear all of the reactions. Yes, it sucked that I couldn't be there, but I don't feel like I missed out.

In this present time of free online video chat, why does anyone have to physically be in meatspace for this? Why can't she mail the gifts with the understanding that they can't be opened until they're both on Skype? I'm sorry, but "you have to be in front of me to get my gifts" sounds self-serving. :T
