| If you are stocking hangers, at what point would you put up a stocking for your child’s SO? |
|
Not until engaged/married.
Give presents instead. I made a stocking for a boyfriend once when I was feeling crafty, but never expected ours to hang together on a mantel (high school boyfriend). |
If SO will be there for whenever you open Xmas and everyone else gets filled stocking, would out up one but would not have name on it. |
Just put “[your kid’s name] Current SO.” |
| We have stockings for whomever is present on Christmas morning. |
😂😂 |
This is what my MIL did until my husband and I got married. It was fine. |
Ha! Way better than my guy friends Mom, who gave the SO the dog stocking! |
| We have some extra with a heart on them which go to any extra guests. |
That's a thoughtful solution. |
This. I have extra with no names. All Christmas morning guests get a stocking. |
| Personally, I see it as a commitment thing. If they have shown serious commitment over time, its as good as a ring or a license. People break engagements and marriage vows all the time so considering that no one deserves any trust or inclusion. |
Love that! |
| So you have guests sit there and watch the family members open stockings, but the guests don't have one? That's rude. |
| Anyone who is at our house on Christmas morning gets a stocking. |
