They think that my brothers act really selfish like there the center of the unizversre and also me SOMETIMES they even said. So for this Christmas they are going to buy us REALLY REALLY nice toys. Like the Ipod Nano for me and the Wii anyways they are going to make us give it ALL to chairity and I dont think this is fair because I have been asking for an Ipod Nano FOREVER, and I even told them that I will not be opening my gifts on Christmas and I will not even go downstairs to watch my brothers open them and I have asked them to not even get me the Ipod because it will hurt to much to give it away if they are going to make me do that. They said thats the point so it does hurt you. What should I do? And do you think this is fair?
By the way my brothers ages are 10,8,4
And me and my sisters ages are 14 and 4
If you wanted to know

They said that giving away the toys that we wanted most would teach us about how we are lucky and we dont apprieate it

And the worst part is there not going to even tell my brothers. I was even meant to hear it I over hear them talking abou it.

If it's true it's horrible. Even if you and your brothers have been selfish that is no way to treat a child.
I hope they are just joking with you and if not....throw them a loop. Don't say anything more about it until Christmas if they try to bait you into saying something say you still think it isn't fair but they are the parents.
If you and your brothers have the money buy them something nice for Christmas.
If you open your presents and they really aren't joking about taking the gifts to charity announce that you thought about it hard the night before and really don't mind as the gifts will doubtless be used.
As you walk out the door put their gifts on top. If they ask you what you're doing tell them it's selfish of them to keep gifts for themselves when they can be given to kids for charity. Then announce that you think this should be done next year too. Although knowing parents they might just think you mean that last bit.

Well from now on the thing to do is to thank your parents for everything they give you. Also spend some time helping unfortuate kids. You can do after school tutoring or someting, take all your old stuff like clothes, books, games, and donate it. You could even donate to your younger brothers and sisters. Show them you are thankful and dont have to have everything.

you sounded greedy to me. instead of asking what you can get ave you ever thought about what you are giving to them?
furthermore Christmas is not about expensive gifts you get...

I'm glad you are beginning to see that you are selfish. Are your parents "fair"? I don't live with you and I don't make the rules for your parents. They will do what they think is best for you.
