[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really curious about something

Every year there is a thread where someone asks how many Christmas presents people's kids get, and when I post that my kids get 20 or so things (we have a lot of relatives) people make it sound like I'm a total outlier.  But then here, people are posting that as of Christmas morning their kids have already gotten 24 presents.

Is that these are different people, or that people aren't thinking of lip balm or a lego minifig as a "present"?  [/quote]

I think there are two groups of people. Some more worried about excess stuff and some are more YOLO.  Similar discussion in the elementary forum about birthday party favors

I'm the PP here.

I am actually not a stuff person, which is why it always sort of amazes me when every year I end up falling into that same thread (OK also I should be amazed that I continue to participate in that same thread, because I know how it's going to go).  I don't think of myself as someone whose kids have a ton of stuff, but every year I feel attacked.
