I got the impression she signed up for the angel tree to get the lululemon shorts.

I don’t get why everyone is so up in arms about this. Her daughter asked for the shorts. The article was her emotional journey towards accepting her situation and letting go of judgement. She even said, maybe one the rich moms in lululemon leggings would end up buying the shorts for them. [/quote]

Was this “emotional journey” supposed to be profound or poignant? She came to the realization that rich people aren’t all bad for buying expensive athletic shorts. Am I supposed to get teary seeing the photo of her and her daughter wearing Lululemon? Uh, okay.

I don’t care that she bought $58 shorts but this was kind of a dumb article.[/quote]

I just think it’s silly to get this angry because a mom did an angel tree for something expensive.

So, what? If you don’t want to give, don’t.

She didn’t ask for the shorts from the angel tree. She blew $116 on the shorts THEN asked for presents for Christmas because she had no money left for them.

It’s called personal responsibility. Which so many people these days just don’t have. [/quote]

No she didn't... she bought 1 pair for her daughter.

Later she bought her daughter more and it is her "go to gift".

The Xmas tree request was just because her H walked out 6 weeks before xmas. It's not like she does it every year. [/quote]

Go back and reread. The husband walking out 6 weeks before Christmas was from a Reader comment. That was not what happened to OP. [/quote]
