What will be parent's feelings if they get a money order ot cheque as gift from their children? Will they get ego or they will be happy.

I think my parents would be really happy if they were to receive such gifts from me. Even if anyone's parents are financially stable already, I'm sure they'll still appreciate anything that will be coming from their kids. I believe that they also feel fulfilled whenever they see their children has achieved something in their lives. They would be nothing but proud.
It doesn't have to be money. You can try sending them gifts for travel. At least, that's what I would do. :)

Giving money or gifts to parents makes them feel that they just might have done something right in raising their child(ren). It's a wonderful feeling to be loved and thought about by your children , who have past through the portals of youth now earning the rites of adulthood. When they look back, they come to realize that it was their parents/guardians who helped them to reach their goals. Giving parents gifts is a way a child can return the favor of taking care of them when they were too small to take care of themselves. Remember that, one of the best gifts to give is your time, letting them know they aren't forgotten as your travel down your journey of life. Who knows when theirs may come to an end?

How much ever rich they may be, parents always love to see their children's salary being offered to them. They may be well enough to wear a 10000Rs dress at ease but the joy they take in wearing a 500Rs dress in your First Month salary is far greater than anything they can afford. What is the word Eg doing here? Whcih parents see EGO in accepting a gift from their children? I am sure and confident that Parents will enjoy it very much. Their Happiness knews no bounds in this matter.
