The Scoop: People Magazine reports that Tom and Katie sent Tom's ex-wife Nicole Kidman some baby gifts in celebration of the birth of her daughter. Tom and Nicole have 2 children together, Connor and Isabelle. People Magazine reports that contrary to rumors, Tom, Katie, and the kids did not send a room full of flowers, instead they sent a gift basket with Giraffe chenille blankets and Hermes baby clothes, in addition to other high end baby items.
Colleen says: How decent of the Holmes-Cruises! Seriously, even if it was just a PR stunt, I think it's really thoughtful of Tom to give a gift to the mother of his two older children. It sets a really good example for the kids.
What do you think? Whether or not this was strictly for PR (which I think we can all agree, it is), is it the right thing to do to send a gift like this? Would it be proper to send a nice and thoughtful gift to your ex and the parent of your children upon the birth of a subsequent child from a different relationship?
It is hard to get past the PR part of it.
yarmjoSo I would say it isn't the right OR wrong thing to so. Does that make sense?
It's important to treat each other with respect after a split for the sake of the children. To never talk down the other parent to the child on a day to day basis. That is the RIGHT thing to do and that is where they will get their good example, not from the bells and whistles that get you attention.
