If you don't believe in it, why celebrate it? My former foster mom supposedly doesn't believe in Christmas, & she gives gifts, has family gatherings, & enjoys dinner. I'm 24 now, but I remember when I was 16, I just got new braces on my teeth, & the orthodontic assistant put Christmas colored bands on the braces without allowing me to choose what colors. My former foster mom went off on me & said I made a fool out of her & embarrassed her because of my "red & green braces". Another time, I was like 8, & I asked a lady @ bible class what she got for Christmas, & the foster mom pulled & dragged me by the ear from the bathroom, all the way to our seat in class.
I was never told until I was 16 that we don't celebrate Christmas because of our non-denominational beliefs. I always thought we did, since we had family gatherings, dinners, & gifts.
