One should talk to a financial person about which stock to buy. But, to buy one share of a stock as a gift, one must first choose the stock they want to buy, then enter the person's Social Security Number and then decide if one wants the gift sent directly to them, or directly to the gift receiver.

Is a gift from parent to adult children taxable to children?

Not if it is a true gift. People often misuse the term "gift" to disguise some other type of payment that may be taxable. For example, if you spend 40 hours a week digging ditches and at the end of the week the person who told you to dig gives you a "gift," calling it a gift does not change the fact that it is a taxable wage. And you may have to pay tax if you dispose of a gift of appreciated property. Let's say your parent bought stock for $1 a share some years ago and gives it to you. You won't pay tax on the gift itself, but if the stock is now worth $100 a share, you will pay tax on the $99 difference when you sell it. Unfortunately, it doesn't work the other way around. If your parent paid $100 for the stock but it is worth $1 on the day of the gift and you immediately sell it, you don't get a $99 deduction (capital loss). There may be some cases in which the IRS can reclaim part of the gift. For example, if the gift constituted a fraudulent transfer to evade paying tax or if the parent does not have enough assets remaining to pay any gift tax that may apply.
