Well, you can't expect someone to give you something they don't know how to give. You just explained what is missing for him where he simply doesn't know how to understand what gift giving is all about.

Yes, a handmade card can be VERY special because it means the person took the time to make it for you. My cards were what my parents enjoyed getting the most for their birthdays etc. It's the personal time spent that's important.

No one taught your father that and clearly this guy doesn't know either. It's not that uncommon.
