[quote=Anonymous]Every Christmas we do a huge family gathering and my kids are loaded down with presents. Of course they like to, and are urged by family, to open every single box or package. I’m all about fun, but it becomes a logistical nightmare gathering it all up and shoving it back into torn packaging at the end of the evening. Also, I like to take certain things like craft kits and store them in their closets to pull out on snow days or school breaks. It’s easier if the packages haven’t been torn into and the crafts haphazardly started already. Last Christmas I tried to set things like this aside, and told the kids they could open three things, but the gift givers were insulted and told me to “let them have fun, it’s Christmas”. So, am I being too Type A uptight, or does my reasoning seem logical? If so, what should I tell the disappointed gift givers?[/quote]
