yeah. I also have a feeling that the parents have perhaps tried to ask for specific gifts (perhaps some mentioned above. I know my sister asks for $$ for summer camps in specialty areas the kids have interests in acting, horseriding, etc that are expensive) And have been turned down bc again seeing their faces and giving it to them in person. You can't see the kid getting the summer camp. bc most likely you aren't there when they are getting it. There is a LOT of ME ME ME in this letter that pings my radar.
