Re: Christmas: Do children expect too much?
My eldest is 14 and he wants everything. He was the only child till he was 10 so he was really spoilt, mainly by my parents as I had no money so they would spend hundreds on him at xmas.
This year he keeps asking for a laptop!!!! He isn't getting one but I don't think he believes me. I keep telling him that we don't have that sort of money but he seems to not listen.
The other 2 are on 1 and 4 so they don't expect loads and the 4 year old is just happy that everyone comes to visit.
I have to admit that for the past 2 years I have splurged but we bought a house this year and just don't have the money.
