This is an experiment to see how honest people can be if they don't have to identify themselves. Some silly, some deep, but all require honesty.

Do you think your family really got the true spirit of Chrismas this year or was it more about materialism?
I think both. We received way too many things; stuff that we did not need at all. However, this was a time for all of my family to gather together and spend time with each other.
I think part of Christmas is being with people you love, and my family did do that this Christmas. Sometimes I wish we could leave the presents out of the holiday, and focus on the family part.
We also had way too much stuff, but abundant blessings of being with family.
I'm thrilled to say it took my children a good length of time to open their presents. Not so much because of the quantity (oh, there were plenty!), but because they took time to enjoy each one.
I think we need to work to teach our children why we do what we do.
absolutely, we are out of a job and only got 1 present a piece and then what Santa brought our child. Our christmas was all about understanding the gift we received with the Savior's birth and cherishing the family time we enjoyed.
Most of these questions are now submitted. Please feel free to submit your question and see how others feel. Email me here with a subject line of "Anonymous Truth"

I felt almost sick when I left my family. We just had all this stuff that we didn't really need.

there is a movement to do that. it is called the advent conspiracy. google it sometime they have an interesting concept.
my christmas was the same as yours, way too much stuff, but blessed with family.

A little bit of both. It's hard to tell a bunch of kids 2 and younger about the true meaning of Christmas.
