[quote=Anonymous]How do you make Christmas special when you're just with your three person nuclear family and the child is now a teenager? It wasn't a problem when DD was younger and loved all the parental attention but now is turning 13 right around Christmas and recently had moved into much-rather-be-with-my-friends than my parents mode. We have little traditions like decor and gifts, but I'm feeling anxious about this mood we've been seeing bringing down the day. Last weekend we planned to do traditional Christmas baking to give cookies to the neighbors and it was like pulling teeth. [/quote]
