[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Life is a long journey.  For a small portion of that journey it’s your turn to host or travel.  Suck it up, you little baby. [/quote]

This is awful advice. You never get the little-kid years back. Do not waste them running yourself ragged for adults who already had their turn. Even if they call you names.[/quote]

This X1000. My kids hands down preferred the holidays when it was just us. They remember playing board games, just having fun on Christmas, lounging with the dog and being chill as the best ones. The holidays with stressed parents running after guests, parents constantly cleaning and cooking, being forced into matching pajamas so granny could get her pictures, cousins breaking toys, and keeping the dog in another room because there was too much chaos were not magical for them.

I get that boomers want more memories but they really are not creating good memories. [/quote]

Sound family specific to me.  Our kids couldn’t imagine Christmas without their grandparents, aunts and uncles or cousins.  [/quote]
