Christmas is not about getting presents; it's about celebrating the birth of Christ. You aren't entitled to getting something. That's just an extra treat for the holiday. I think more children should get nothing for Christmas (not have presents hidden upstairs like kiml122's little brother ), maybe then they'll count their blessings and truly appreciate everything that they do have.
Preach, Sista Preach!! Then the kids will appreciate what the3y already have, count thier blessings, and discontinue acting up!! Believee me, I know from experiencing it!! If I had kids I would take them somewhere like a homeless shelter or a foster home (one of the cleaner/ safer ones though) to show them how some people are forced to live (I wouldn't do this w/ very small chldren though) and tell them they should be grateful for what blessings Jesus has already bestowed upon them...
