I am sure there are more than one answer. It depends. Do your parents take turns with holidays? What do YOU want to do? If you prefer one over the other, talk to them, they will understand. They love you. Make sure that you will give attention to both of them and if you are away, call or send the other parent a card. Heart is a big place and there is room for everybody! Good luck and Merry Christmas!

I really can't answer your question but I can leave you with something to be thankful for ... I also live in a divorced family and the reality is that both my parents are good people, unfortunately my mom hates my dad so much that I'm not even allowed to see him and my father doesn't want to make matters between my mom and me worse so he agrees .. me ... I have no choice as to whom I can spend my christmas with so I hope you realize that somehow you are lucky :) sorry for boring you with my sob story :)

this must be very hard for you to choose, mum or dad, is there know way you can get them together at Christmas, So you can be with them at the same time, After all it´s not your fault they are divorced , and Christmas comes only once a year, Merry Christmas

How about going and see both of your parents if they are still local. It may be hard for you to split your life up like this, but it is your world.
Do not let your parents create conflicts for you. Show both parents love and if they begin to bad mouth the other party, then as an adult or older teen, you're going to have to be the one to call all the shots and remind them, that Xmas is a happy moment.
As a child you shouldn't have to choose (which parent). Your parents living arrangements have changed, but your passion for Xmas with the family does have to a tug-of-war. Just visit both homes and have a blast.
Need more info to make a better answer for you!

Go to one for dinner and one for tea, or wherever you feel relaxed and happy. Whatever you do don't let it spoil your day, divorce is hard for all concerned so it's best to try to work together. Hope you have a really nice Christmas. xx

my mom invites my dad over to open gifts with us in the morning and to have christmas dinner with us.
if she didn't, we probably wouldn't spend christmas with my dad at all.
neither of them are remarried and my sister and i are now 19 and 23 but she has been doing this for 3 years.
