[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We incorporate their friends.

Have a few guys over for movies, video games, and pizza. Tell them you are making cookies and they can eat them if they help decorate. They will jump right in. Then put on Elf and make hot chocolate while they decorate.

Start doing take-out grub and movies like Die Hard instead of Rudolph.

Or do the corny Hallmark movies and make a non drinking game out of it. My teens love that. We laugh all night.

We also rented a limo one time and brought a bunch of kids thru the drive thru lights. Then back for movies and cookies.

Girls did a dress up dinner and ate at Tower Oaks lodge. Lots of pics. But then I give them Christmas questions they have to ask during dinner and it’s really cute.

Teens realize the joy when their other friends are in on it too. By 16/17 they start to miss the old childhood stuff and come back. 13-15 was the worst. [/quote]

Why is 13-15 the worst? They're still kids, but even if they or you think they aren't, they still very close to it. I'd think it be bad at 15 or 16+[/quote]
