[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just saying that on that first day of the murder I posted on the closed thread that it’s weird when families only post their kid  on their Christmas card and so many people said that was BS and that they were a loving family… but Sometimes when it smells like BS, it is BS!

Oh man, we only put our kids on our xmas card (they're cuter than DH and I)!  :lol:

Honestly, most of the cards we receive are just the kids and not the parents....[/quote]

Agree. Who wants to see adults on a Christmas card? Kids change from year to year- it’s fun to see how they’ve grown, especially if you don’t live close by. And yes, most kids are tons cuter than their parents.  :D

It's definitely a sign of an unhappy family in SOME cases. Another sign was his FB page that had photo of him and his dog...no family. Before you say maybe they didn't want that public- Christine's profiles are all public and have pics of their child.[/quote]

You are really reaching here, to the point of sounding ridiculous. Lots of people only put their kids on their Christmas cards- in some cultures, it would be considered vain to send out a picture of yourself, but kids are okay because they’re growing and changing every year. A lot of people see Christmas as being about and for children, so their Christmas cards keep the focus on children, not grown adults.

There are lots of reasons to think something was very, very wrong with this guy and his relationship with his wife(and the human race in general with the way he was able to use an innocent man to try to hide his actions), but putting a picture of a child on a Christmas card is not one of them. Please.

+1. Would also say most families I know only put the kids on the Christmas card. Heck sometimes the grandparents put only the grandkids on the Christmas card. I would say those who post photos of their entire family on a Christmas card are more atypical than typical.[/quote]

That is not my experience at all! Usually the people that don’t include themselves are upset they gained weight or don’t like pictures of themselves. [/quote]

My experience has been that people who include themselves with their kids on a card are people who are really stuck on themselves. The kind who would be judgmental about other people gaining weight.

Most of the cards I get with pictures are just the kids.
