[quote=Anonymous]At age 13, I would explain. If he is used to expensive Christmas gifts and then gets a lot less this year, he may assume that you are mad at him or fear that the family is going to become homeless. Kids are excellent observers but poor interpreters. I would let at least him know that Christmas will look different this year but the family is still stable. Goodwill/thrift stores are a good idea, plus neighborhood list serves. Good luck![/quote]
