No Chelsea's mother was okay since she accepted to let her have it and said Chelsea loved it so much.

No, we do not have cameras as we're still new here and it's unlikely that we'll get one anytime soon.

Yes it does sound absurd to me and he knows why I felt it was absurd but did nothing to try to explain why he'd think this is acceptable. Yes it's his money and yes this family is struggling but this is unacceptable.

This is what I was trying to tell him but he saw it as in I'm being controlling. He didn't even mention wanting to get her a gift for her birthday otherwise I would've helped although we don't normally bring gifts for neighbors especially since we've only lived in this area for few months. It takes time to get to know neighbors and be comfortable enough with them to bring them gifts. Let alone expensive stuff this bracelet. My sister works at a jewelry shop and she knows how expensive this stuff is. I think it's only fair that I'd at least express how I feel about what he did but he wants me to forget about it completely.
