[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 325484, member: 84"] Witz I swear that has to be one of the most selfish responses I've heard. Sure she wasn't raised by my Mom? lol The entitlement in that response is outragious. OMG Cuz she loves xmas she expects you to go out of your way to celebrate it the way she wants you to and because you won't that makes you a bad parent. Gag me! You know, my Mom hasn't put on any actual xmas gathering but maybe 4-5 times since all of us kids left home. Shoot, when we were kids we always went to relatives. I think she did it once cuz my aunts forced her to. lol And you know what? I don't think any of us have really thought much about it. The way she wanted to spend the holidays was up to her. We most certainly did not expect her to make her plans around us and do it cuz we wanted her to. sheesh! I do (normally) xmas as a huge deal. Mostly because it is the ONLY holiday I get any real pleasure out of. My kids are invited. And because they have their mates families to consider I'm pretty plan flexable. But this is because I [I][B]want[/B][/I] to, not because they [I][B]expect[/B][/I] me to. Huge difference there. I'm sorry she hurt you Witz. Hugs [/QUOTE]
