Anyone who is at our house on Christmas morning gets a stocking.

So you have guests sit there and watch the family members open stockings, but the guests don't have one? That's rude.

Personally, I see it as a commitment thing. If they have shown serious commitment over time, its as good as a ring or a license. People break engagements and marriage vows all the time so considering that no one deserves any trust or inclusion.

If SO will be there for whenever you open Xmas and everyone else gets filled stocking, would out up one but would not have name on it.

Just put “[your kid’s name] Current SO.”


Ha! Way better than my guy friends Mom, who gave the SO the dog stocking!

This is what my MIL did until my husband and I got married. It was fine.

Not until engaged/married.

Give presents instead.

I made a stocking for a boyfriend once when I was feeling crafty, but never expected ours to hang together on a mantel (high school boyfriend).
