My boy has been invited by his school friend for Bar Mitzvah. We might not be able to attend the party as we have to go out of town (the date is still not final). Now, if he attends, what type of gift should he bring? Would any normal birthday gift do? Or we need something special Mitzvah type gift? Also, what if he doesn’t attend? In that case, do we have to buy a gift? Plese suggest… thanks in advance

Gifts on a bar mitzvah are not the same as on an ordinary birthday. The gift you give must reflect the fact that it’s a simcha and not any other school program. There are no specific guidelines for gifts, since it depends upon your family budget, but I can give you some tips. Some families might want to give a donation or tribute (for example, a JNF tree). You can also send a check if you want, but it always better to gift something that reflects the Jewish traditions. There are so many things to give- just go to the market and you will find a plethora of bar/bat mitzvah gifts. If you want, you can give something that is not mitzvah-related. But it would be better if you supplement it with something that has a Jewish touch.
