How much should i give?

[macdonald]

Can I ask you lovely Dibbers what amount you would give your Granddaughter for her18th birthday...I have no clue, I know she would prefer money that a present but I have no clue how much..?

I have just given my grandson £100 towards a VR headset that he wants for his 18th. We have a friends and family rule that over 18 they just get xmas presents.

There’s no proper answer to this tbh.
It comes down to what you can afford and what you then feel is appropriate.
Maybe speak to her parents for advice?

Personally for a special birthday I would give a bit more than I would normally spend, so probably £100.

Could you give him something with 18 in it x if you can afford say £118 Or £100.18?

[floridasgirl]

I don't think there's a correct answer! You give what you feel you can afford!

My nephew got £100 from my mum but £1000 from his other grandmother. He got £50 from his mums partners mother and £500 from his dads wife’s mother. So I really don’t think there is a set rule. I gave him £50 and wrapped up 18 bars of toblerlone (his favourite chocolate) that went down a treat 😂😂😂😂

My Mum is not doing 18th she is giving each grandchild 10 driving lessons for their 17th

I would give what you can afford. My daughter is 18 in 2 weeks and I’ve spent £100 on her.

Do what you can afford and also if you have other grandchildren to come you need to think if you can give them the same. So my parents always give the same to my eldest nephew down to my youngest daughter but my in laws probably don’t do this with their grandkids? X
