At This time of year there seems to be this pressure to buy an incredible amount of presents for your children or grand children.Ive seen lots of posts on Tik tok with ridiculous amounts of presents.Of course it is their perogative completely what they do and how they wish to spend their money.But I personally think it's more important how you spend the time with children and the memories you create during your lives together that are much more important than material things.It is lovely to get nice gifts too but not WAY over the top

    This is an excellent post and reminder @Jane315STARX and I could not agree more.

    When I reflect on my own childhood, I could not remember more than perhaps one present I received or any of the material things, but I do remember spending time with my family.

    Yes exactly.Me too and it's especially important when people pass as these memories are even more cherished.
