that bad?
Yes
, it were totally shite, I felt so alone. Just me and the kids, who couldn;t be anymore ungrateful for the stuff they got. My 6 yr old said "is that it" when he had done opening his gifts.
I mean why do people say "santa knows if you've been naughty or nice" if thy still intend to give gifts to naughty kids just because it's expected.
Next year I intend to be harsher.
I actually resented buying any of them gifts this year because I honestly didn;t believe they deserved them
Oh wow! I am sorry it was so rough. Our xmas was more simple this yr. Less spent on gifts. Economy, plus my h and I recently separated and finances are all up in the air.
My kids are older tho. I was able to explain to them why we couldnt get all the expensive hi tech toys they wanted. iPhones or whatever, no way.
xmas is hard on moms...
