gifts every new mom needs image
Maia Earth
My Mom stresses EVERY year about gifts. I'm 26 and my sister is 30. No matter how many times we tell her not to worry and just have fun she still thinks she needs to get us tons of stuff. She still asks us to make her wish lists!
Answer
Because gift giving has become a huge part of our culture, especially for younger generations.
My mother is the exact same way, so this year I tried to make it easy for her. Instead of giving gifts, we're going to adopt a platoon of soldiers in Afghanistan or Iraq. Other than my greedy brother, we all have way more than we need and everything that we want. I'm in college, which means no room for extra stuff. Instead of focusing on the gifts, we're focusing on the food.
I love Christmas food.

How do I make up for my mom not having a good Christmas ?
Jordan
Yesterday was Christmas, and my mom had like 3 things for her under the tree. I feel so bad. I wanna make it up for her some how and she says it's not my fault, it's my dad's fault, but I feel partly responsible. I love my mom a lot, and I wanna quit being so lazy and irresponsible. Please give me some advice and no hate please ! By the way I'm 14 a year old boy.
Answer
I got three things for Christmas, too. They were nice presents: I got a Cuisinart saucepan, a Brighton necklace, and a Vera Bradley tote bag and matching E reader case. I would have been just as pleased if the items were less expensive and not name brands. I am a grandmother.
By the time people are old enough to be the parent of teenagers, they usually, in most cases,have matured beyond the point of counting their gifts they received. They have the wisdom and maturity to realize many "gifts" do not come in gaily colored wrappings tied up with a big red bow, yet they are the greatest gifts of all. Our health, our families, our children, our friends, the basic necessities in a failing economy, a job, a steady income, our homes, our faith and belief in God - truly are treasures and worth far more than a present under the tree.
If you want to "make up" to your Mom for what YOU perceive as her not having a good Christmas, tell her you love her and appreciate her. Help her out around the house. Do good in school. Keep your grades up. Stay out of trouble. Be kind to everyone. Do good deeds. Develop strong values and practice them. Believe me, she'll have the "gifts" she needs to have a good Christmas, every day of the year.
