We have a 22 year old guy in our office who lives at home with his Mom & Dad. His cousin is getting married and sent an invitation to the "family" to attend the wedding. He plans on going and doesn't think he needs to give a gift individually or contribute to a gift with his parents because he will be covered under his parents gift since an invitation was not sent to him directly.
I don't see anything wrong with a group gift from a family; especially since they were invited as such. What I do see as an issue is this grown man, living at home with his parents, (he obviously has a job and an income) and not insisting he give his parents "a little something" to help purchase a wedding gift for his cousin.
Shame on him and shame on his parents for enabling him!
