It's the last day before Winterholidays tomorrow and I would like to give a small gift for Christmas to the nursery Key worker of my son. Any ideas would be helpful🎁

Last year was my first Christmas with my step son. His dad got him majority of his gifts like PS5 etc and clothes (he’s 11) I got him a few smaller things. This year we now have our 9 month old baby too and have decided to do joint gifts from me and his dad to our stepson and a gift from the baby to him. I saw him ...

This will probably be very variable due to incomes / circumstances and sorry for being "nosey" I'm not meaning to I need some reassurance or some sense talking into me 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 I'm not sure which one 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 How much do you all spend on your little ones at Christmas? I ended up panicking that I didn't get my little…

I know it’s technically illegal to open someone else’s mailbox but it seems so silly to me to have to pay for a stamp and wait 2 or 3 days for them to get your card when you can just walk over and put it in their mailbox yourself for free

We have argued a lot in our relationship and we have tried to make it work and get along. It just seems like we’re not compatible and can’t see eye to eye. Today was our 5 year anniversary. It’s close to Christmas. For Christmas we told each other what we wanted. I wanted a cube organizer. I wrap his anniversary gif...

Would I be the asshole if I sold the things my “in-laws” got me for Christmas? They’ve known me over a decade, as I’ve been dating their son. We have two kids together. Not married. These people didn’t get the items I sent on my list and obviously don’t know me very well. They got me shoes, not in any style any of u...

What are you giving your LO for Christmas

Cutting a long story short, I have a friend who I lost touch with for about 8 years (nothing happened we just naturally drifted apart). Anyway I bumped into her 4 months ago and we have been in touch since. She has leukemia which has spread so she just started treatment. It was her birthday and I wanted to get her...

Do you agree to doing this? Lo is 4 and only goes to her house for an afternoon every 3 weeks on average...

Baby dad not seen our son for almost a year and posts a card with £200 in for Xmas. He claims he’s trying to do better in order to see his son (for reasons). Yet goes out and spends more than £200 on clothes for himself the same day!

Originally my husband and I agreed no christmas gifts for eachother this year just the kids since money is tight, I kind of prompted that idea knowing I'd probably get nothing anyway, but then we changed it to stockings and one gift for eachother and now it's just kinda whatever we want. I got him two gifts was plan...

I ordered gifts for my son on December 7th and it hasn’t even been shipped yet. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

It’s Christmas shopping time and my MIL is so exhausting. My husband and I are spending our money to buy Christmas gifts for everyone in the family. She keeps dictating what we give each person. My husband bought his uncle a fifty dollar bottle of his favorite whisky and my MIL reallocated it to her man, because tha...

I picked an appropriate sized Picasso tile set for the amount of kids but is this insensitive? Should I find separate gifts for them? I have a small budget at a lot of families to buy for. ($50 per family 5 families)

Because I'm not 🤣🤌🏾😵‍💫...

Is it crazy to get my baby a Xmas gift?? He’s due May 26th🤣🤗

I've never really been Christmas shopping before but I went for the first time last night. We wanted to let our toddler pick out an early Christmas gift for herself. I had SEVERAL adults (without children accompanying them) either try and shove their way through me with my toddler or give us death stares when I didn...

My MIL told me that’s way too friendly to do and I shouldn’t have sent a card. I mean she plays a huge part in mine and my daughter’s life. It’s not like I got her a gift?

Is this okay for a Christmas Eve box for a 1 year old?
