Do your parents/IL's give you Father's/Mother's Day gifts

Let me preface this by saying I don't expect one's parent's/MIL/FIL to give them gifts on Mother's or Father's Day - but do they?

I am only asking because my parents are deceased, DH doesn't talk to his mother, and my FIL has never given me a gift ever (even for our wedding).. however I do have friends and other family that often send us cards and stuff.

    My parents - no. Nothing for DH or me.

    My MIL - yes. She has always given me a card for Mother's Day sicne we got married and I became a step-mom. Since I had DD I also get a small check or gift. 

    This year she was visiting in April and she bought me a bunch of maternity clothes that were my combined birthday and mother's day gift (about $100).

    No.

    However, I always give friends who are new parents a card on M/F Day.

    My mom does but she gives us presents for everything (to the extent that one year my DH kiddingly called her and asked if she was mad at us because Arbor Day came and went without a gift).

    My ILs do not. ?They get us Christmas presents and that's it. ?We don't even get Father's Day/Mother's Day cards.?

    Im giving a gift to DH, his dad, my dad and BIL.....Usually whoever the dads are that are in attendance of whatever we're doing.  (thats why BIL is getting something this year from us, those "extra" dads get something small, but SOMETHING)
