        I know this is intended as tongue in cheek, but this is the sad reality for many kids and families. I’m thinking of two kids in particular insisting that they can’t really think of anything they want for Christmas, which I know is BS.

        That's why you teach the kids about Santa Claus, have unreasonable expectations for their behavior, and then just call them naughty all the time. "No presents again this year?"

        This was literally the situation with a letter to Santa my nephew wrote a few years ago. I was gutted when I read it. 😢
