[quote=Anonymous]I think part of the downhill starts in middle school or so when their Christmas "wish list" becomes itemized down to the serial number (because they know exactly the speakers or latest apple product, or whatever, that they want). So we get them exactly what they ask for and then also try to have a "surprise" gift that they actually like (but that they didn't know they wanted because they didn't put it on their list). So it all comes back to adding pressure on me it seems. We still want Christmas to be magical. I'm going to check out the Quebec City property pp mentioned. That may be the way we need to go.
