[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate gift giving between adults. I find it SO tedious and sort of demeaning. My MIL insists. I pass this off the my DH every year, but it's so awkward and weird. She makes us sit around and open one at a time and while this makes sense to me for children or a small group, with a very large group it's SO annoying. If I wander away to tend to a kid, or get a drink, or use the bathroom it's always "Where is she? What is she doing? It's her turn. She missed Aunt Millie opening the waffle iron I bought her off her Amazon list, she has to see it!" Down with adult gift giving! Focus on the kids and then let's free ourselves up to just buy ourselves something we've wanted to celebrate Christmas.[/quote] +1. My MIL is he same and I hate it.[/quote]
