no one said you had to. it's just a traditional thing. I understand what you mean I feel the same way sometimes but it feels even more special. Christmas is about giving you're time to people and to show how much you care for them.

you're right, but the idea of gift giving and christmas is so ingrained that no one really wants to NOT give up receiving a gift during that time when others around them are. it's sad, but since x-mas became associated with gift giving, ppl just expect to receive gifts when it happens.

I take you're not familiar with traditions....and you don't have to wait to buy something for someone! Where did you come from??
