[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 106671, member: 3626"] I'm truly sorry you feel you are doing the right thing. I do understand your son needing drastic measures to get a message but, to me, this borders on cruel. Yes, I understand you are still planning on doing some things and it's good that charity is part of those plans. They were always a part of Christmas in my home. But to remove all decorations, to say there will be no Christmas, I'm sorry but I think you've gone too far. Even more importantly, I truly believe both boys will always remember what you did (not why you did it -- they're really too young to connect those dots and when they get older, they're not going to care why just that Christmas was taken away by mom) and may never forgive you for it. I hope I'm wrong. I wish you the best in this. I obviously don't agree but I hope it works out the way you want. [/QUOTE]
