Default Re: Christmas: Do children expect too much?

I don't have any children of my own but i do have a younger brother and sister- they always have long lists but generally only with a couple of things that are expensive or that they really want.

I always looked forward to the presents but usually because of the surprises- mum's great at getting unusual presents- and all 3 of us like christmas more for the atmosphere, the good films and the fantastic food

I do think advertising is a big part of it though- with breaks every 5 minutes on some of the kids channels its no wonder they want so much!!! xxxx
