Do you buy your kids a gift if you throw them a birthday party?

I do a party and a gift.
The max I’ve spent on a party and gift combined though was between $700-$800, for his 10th birthday. $2000 is a bit steep for a party the child likely won’t remember in a few years.

2k on a 4 year old birthday party.good for you. Most parents do their best to afford a cake and ice cream.and you can’t buy present.

Is this even a question? It is of course your choice but a party once over is gone, a gift will last a lot longer and at that age they have no concept of money and are highly likely to not remember the party

That’s all the kids want are gifts. Stop paying so much for a birthday party🙄

Holy fuck!!! 2k for a child’s birthday party are you insane?
