Back in my day, we used to only get one special present that we asked for specifically. Of course, there'd be other little surprises, but not this huge toy-soaked fest that a lot of people have now. My niece and nephew, for example, tend to get a LOT of stuff, but their parents aren't together anymore, and that explains the 2 Christmases they get.
I think a lot of this stuff comes down to priorities. I remember kids in school who would come to school without a proper coat, but they all got Nintendos back for Christmas of 1989.
As far as Santa goes, I really wanted to believe, but I never could. My nephew never even tried.
