How are we supposed to keep getting bigger and better gifts every year since the damage is done they're brats

Question

the kids don't seem to care about ho-made stuff. All the ethics and standards died away with our grandparents

Answer 1

Rebuild the ethics and standards, it isnt too late. Start your own traditions.

Answer 2

stick to your guns! if they don't like it, that's their problem. hopefully, they'll have decent parents who will put lovingly-created items away until their rotten kids can appreciate them. if not, i'd quit giving them anything more than a mere token. in fact, that's just what i've done with several families i know.

another good thing to try is showing the really spoiled ones what underpriveleged kids live with and make do. take them to a homeless/women's shelter and show them.

Answer 3

Then don't give them the bigger and better gifts. It has to stop somewhere, and you are the parents after all. It won't be easy, but a job worthwhile doing will never be easy.

Answer 4

These brats you are on about, whose children are they? yours? then I think we know who to blame.
