[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's abuse to bring a young child to a gift giving party, but tell them they can't have a gift.  Then don't come!  If it were me, I'd do my own Christmas this year and only invite your parents.  Makes sense because they don't even believe in Jesus/Christmas!!!  It's YOUR religion, not theirs.  So you can dictate how and where you celebrate it.  They are wrong if they try to dictate someone else's religious observance. [/quote]
OP said it's a "family get together each Christmas, with a large meal and board games and a walk as the main activities" and in a later post added that the family rarely all gets together. It's not a "gift giving party" and it's not child abuse to get together with your family when you can while not partaking in an aspect of the evening. Maybe OP's family should talk about getting together more often, so that it would be more feasible for her sister and BIL to skip Christmas without missing out on valuable and rare family time, rather than complaining that BIL doesn't like Christmas.[/quote]

Don't play coy.

1)  It's CHRISTMAS.

2)  Christmas is a gift giving holiday.  Very much.

3)  Yeah, maybe BIL should coordinate his own atheist meal get together without Christmas gifts.  Because he is anti-Christmas and anti-Christ, but enjoys meals and board games.  Could do that on. . . Thanksgiving?  Gee, that's an entire holiday about a big meal and gathering, secular.  And it's only days away.
