It is wrong to give a present only to see the reaction it brings. Who would do that???
I think it's bad manners (according to me) not to share the authentic and immediate joy a gift has brought you. I don't understand why you would want to deprive the gift giver of that Unless you are worried about your/your child's reaction to the gift????
My DD has never ripped into any gift and has always given each gift thoughtful consideration and appreciation because that's how she was raised.
