[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't even know you but I am so proud of you for rising above your crazy childhood. what a nightmare it must have been. PPs have given you a lot of "normal" options for response and I'd like to suggest one more. Pretend you didn't see him peek, and play along with his hint-dropping if he does any more. "that would be a cool gift, huh?" and then when he is happy on Christmas morning, you be happy too. Never let on that you saw. He will come to his own decision whether or not to peek and change the nature of the surprise in future years. psychology research actually shows that him knowing the present is coming makes it more enjoyable. Anticipation is a big part of happiness. [/quote]
