[quote=Anonymous]My mom used to cry every Christmas. You guys bought way too much! All these gifts! It's too much! Why did you do this? It ruined the whole mood when I was a kid. I was always worried about my mom crying and complaining while opening presents than actually enjoying opening presents. Who bought you (me) that!? Hold it up! That's way too much! Who bought it for you? They spent way too much!!! So. Much. Guilt... I suspect my mother was a covert/vulnerable narcissist. If she saw us enjoying ourselves, it had to be ruined. I'm in my 50s, and I still hear her voice in my head every year when I open my (few) gifts. That's too much! Do you really deserve it? How much did they spend on you? Just let your kids enjoy opening gifts. That is what it is about.[/quote]
