That's not true Tasha.. Some people just like giving stuff because it's an easier way to express their feelings and make others happy. Just because someone receives an expensive gift for Christmas doesn't mean their parents don't love them or feel bad for not loving them enough. I love spending time with my family in Christmas and I'm looking forward to it a lot. I also love the look of happiness in my cousin's faces when they open their presents. You can get the best of both worlds, and in my family I'm sure we all do. Maybe that's not the case for everyone but I still don't think you should make assumptions like that.
There's some people out there that love giving, my mom is one of those. Giving doesn't necessarily mean giving tangible stuff, but it can. It makes people happy, and with a gift comes more than just a tangible thing, but a person feels like you care about them and you remember them.
I already got my Christmas present, but I know my mom will have a little something (maybe an outfit) for me in Christmas eve.. it's just the detail that counts.
Sometimes things aren't black or white, they can be gray. Though I'm sure your point is correct to some degree, there's tons of kids out there that only care about their presents.. one of my cousins is like that.. and we're trying to teach him otherwise.
I still love you (In a totally amiable and not creepy kind of way ) though Tasha, since you think my name is cool. <3
Nothing against you really, so please don't take it personally.
Sorry for the long (and probably unorganized and random in some places) post...
