What to do with gifts that one received on one's birthday?

Q: I do not celebrate birthdays, however my family does. What should I do with gifts they give me?

A: Give the gifts which they gave you to the poor and in future you should inform them that you do not celebrate birthdays.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
