[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, Christmas is about grace - love and forgiveness and hope freely given. That's the Christmas story in a nutshell. I'm sure its frustrating, but see if you can de-link your kid's behavior from his Christmas gifts. He gets Christmas gifts because you love him unconditionally (even when he is a brat), and because of the joy the whole family has when opening gifts on Christmas morning. Christmas gifts aren't rewards or bribes or incentives - they are love, freely given. Your boy needs your love now, while you two are working on behavior together.[/quote] I love the response.[/quote] +1. I'd like to repost it in every thread where people are arguing about who is supposed to buy what for whom and whether it's rude to turn down one side dish at dinner and every other form of materialistic, petty, judgmental crap. This is the essence of it all, right here. I'm going to print it and put it on my monitor. [/quote]
