[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m part of a FB minimalist group that kind of does this. It’s more about rejecting conspicuous consumption and spending on values and priorities.[/quote] Maybe in your FB group it is, but among my friends in real life who do it, it’s about obnoxious virtue signaling. Look how little we need! Because kindness is more important than gifts! And I will tell EVERYONE that I’m only buying my kids one gift! You do you, but I don’t see why you need to shout that kindness from the rooftops unless you’re hoping for some attention for it. [/quote] I think the question to ask here is why does this trigger you so much? Maybe you know your relationships are empty deep down? My sisters family is like this. So many presents and theb they ask my kids what they got and are shocked it was just two things. We don’t want a ton of junk. [/quote]
