Christmas Spending & the True Spirit of the Season 🎄

So true my kids have all grown up now but they still have stockings and what ever I think they will like . They have always been great ful for what ever they had never greedy xx
 
Why does it bothers others what people spend on there children? We all work hard to provide whatever we can, I won’t be made to feel bad that I can afford something and others can’t.
If you can only afford £50 thats fine and im sure you will have a lovely christmas same if you spend £1000 or more.
i received a terrible message from someone in this group ( she has been deleted now ) because i spend X amount on my children.
just let everyone be.
 
@mrfun83 ye I saw that post , everything in my house comes from santa everyone has their own traditions and nobody can tell you what to do or not do in your own home
 
@movmaker snap! One year it was macaroni cheese. This year we are going to Lapland and coming back Xmas eve so we’re all having nibbles and naughty bits lol
 
My youngest likes the stocking as well but she loves roast spuds 🥔 I look more forward to the crisps and sandwiches in the evening and a game with the family x x wish it was like it used to be - everything closed for two weeks at least - just lots of family time - I think if the kids got the walnuts and tangerines that we used to get in our stockings in an old tight of me mums they wouldn’t be so keen 😂
 
Wish people would stop with the stupid posts though tbh.. its like a dumb question to ask.. ooh what do u spend on your kids?? Who even gives a shit ? If u have a small budget or big one.. bottom line is u spend what u can afford to or what u would like to anyway! The people that are struggling, dong even worry about it.. time spent is worth more than anything in the world and your kids won't remember presents! X
 
People show love and affection in different ways. Some choose to spend quality time with people, other choose to buy gifts, some people do both. If that lady chooses to spend 3k on Christmas and can afford it then fair play to her. Slating her and what she may or may not look like is "gross" accusing her of animal cruelty without proof is "gross" snooping on her personal profile to then slate her is "gross". Who the hell cares how much money people may or may not have. Life is short, there is enough hatred and jealousy in the world already, don't target someone just because she spent her own money on Christmas
 
The only things that matters is the time you spend with your family - money means nothing - you realise this even more when you have just lost someone and there will be an empty chair at Christmas.
Time and the little things are the only thing that matters
 
I'd rather give my daughter's things through the year rather than just 1 day ,we have done SIX,..2 KPOP concerts in London, (not a clue ,I felt like a dinosaur, but was wonderful to see her face ,) making memories, not all the crap ,that goes with it xx
 
I agree. My daughter just turned 6. Didn't want anything. So I got her some girly stuff from home bargains- kids make up, lip gloss, bath bombs etc, some arts and crafts stuff and a caterpillar cake! She was absolutely thrilled. Her favourite presie was a pink fluffy hair brush (which cost £2) and a unicorn onesie that our neighbour got her! My mum took her to the theatre, other family got her clothes & other girly bits, and I treated her to a cinema trip & soft play with two pals, followed by a Maccies (no party - she wasn't bothered for one). She was made up! X
