Christmas presents?
I was just wondering how many christmas presents you get for each child, spouse, and family members? My mother was always a big christmas person. We each got about 15 – 20 gifts (5 kids). But she used christams to make up for some of the other crap she did. So me and hubby often disagree on how many presents I buy for the kids. So I was just looking to see what people do out there. Any feedback would be appreciated.
My dear mother was like that too, only difference is she wasn’t making up for crap she did. I’m sorry you had that as a child. They may have been little gifts but she made sure she wrapped each one separately. I’m in the same boat as my husband is like yours. His family didn’t do that but you tend to follow the traditions you were brought up with. Our children (blended family) are adults and there are grandchildren, but I still buy more than one gift for each. Isn’t that what we, as parents, are supposed to do? What kid, no matter their age, wants to sit and open one gift. That sounds so commercial, but I know they really appreciate them and I’m a giver and the more I can give, even if they’re small gifts, the happier that makes me when I see their faces. I say, what’s ever in your budget, go for it. My son, for instance, tells me if he wants one certain big gift or more smaller ones.

Happy Birthday Jesus! :”)
