    Default Push Present

    A topic of conversation when we had a bunch of people over for dinner. WTF, is this another attempt by DeBeers or Hallmark to usher in some new business? Has anyone actually done this?

    The people that do this also do the "live, laugh, love" murals in their house.

    I've heard of this also.

    My understanding it's usually a matching wedding band to go on the other side of the engagement ring, to make an engagement ring sandwich. And a smart way for jewelry companies to take money from stupid people.

    I bought my wife an SUV that she would like (instead?)

    Are you guys saying I didn’t have to buy my wife a Lexus because we had a kid?

    I picked up a yummy sandwich for my wife after delivering. Thought that was a pretty decent push present.

    I helped during delivery. If I could have bought a ring instead I might have chosen that.

    You are going to end up buying it anyway, might as well get brownie points for being a present.

    This.

    Two kids, zero push presents. My wife doesn’t work anymore, that’s enough of a gift.

    Record the conversation and tell your wife she doesn't work anymore. Share it with us for our enjoyment.

    LOL.

    I leveraged the new car we were getting anyways as a baby-mobile as a "push present" for the first kid and then continued more modestly for the subsequent kids ('cause who needs 4 fucking SUVs?)... I don't care what any of you say; I'd want a fucking present too if I just shat a watermelon.

    Believe it or not, she was across the kitchen from me and I read that to her as I posted it while chuckling to myself.

    She laughed, then reiterated for me that she is indeed not going back to work. She knows stay at home parenting has it's challenges, but no matter how you slice it, it's not as hard as a real job.

    I'll keep ya'll posted with outcomes from the convo in a few years when our kids are both in school and I attempt to send her back to work for real
