[quote=Anonymous]I would try to focus on the long view. As long as you don't make a big deal out of it, you're children won't know what they're missing. And in the meantime, it sounds like your children will get a Christmas that's much more in tune with the long-term values it sounds like you want to instill (volunteerism, less consumerism, etc.). It's much easier to start there and then do big surprises some year as you're inclined than to start with the big Christmases and then have to undo it later when you want to scale back.[/quote]
