Oh, wow, great post! I find myself doing this a lot too, and we’re definitely not well off. I just want to make sure she’s not That Kid. I also realized I was probably going overboard on the Christmas presents. It took my guy to calmly point out how she won’t even realize what she’s missing, and she’s getting plenty.

Don’t worry, you are doing a great job being a Mom. I remember NOT having (oldest of 8 kids and I will understand) and raised 2 kids of my own. I didn’t always have enough for the goodies when my 2 needed them but now that I am a NANA, I make sure the grandkids are never the ones that don’t have enough for book day or popcorn day or Santa store. It is one of my greatest joys in life to spoil them, but they are really not spoiled. THEY ARE LOVED and I do know the difference now. Merry Christmas and keep up the good work. You are tooooo cute!!!!!!!

I can promise you the teacher loved you for doing this. Trust me, it kills us educators to see the kids who never get anything each week too.

Sounds so much like me…my child should want for nothing, but want she still does…. sometimes I wish I had done things differently, but I was trying my best to make up for being a single parent when the ex left us.

It’s not like you are buying her video games and candy…books and popcorn won’t ruin your kids! And they are very cute!! I can’t imagine them being rotten!

In life you have to pick your battles wisely. It’s easy to argue it’s overkill for someone else’s kid, but when it’s your own it’s harder. Sometimes I think one way and other times I think “He’s only young once”. I’m not going to regret the times I say that. He is my joy!
