The holidays can be a very stressful time for many people, which is sad because the real focus should be on family and being together. Our family has had some arguments during Christmas, but we try to remember the real reason we are celebrating, which is to celebrate Christ and all that He has done for us. :angel: As a family we make sure we remember the "reason for the season" and enjoy the time we have with extended relatives. :D

My husband and I purposed in our hearts that our kids would have wonderful Christmases to remember and they do. There never was any fighting or tension and I can truly say there wasn't, also my kids can verify it.
When kids are raised in a home where Christmas is a joyful time filled with love and giving, they will continue the tradition when they have their families. Though my husband's Christmases were not good growing up, he made sure that his kids had wonderful Christmas memories.

I like your answer. Even with lots of non-Christians around me, as a child and teen I never engaged in grumpiness or arguments at Christmas. Now when we have get-togethers with children and grandchildren, there are no arguments among the adults and seldom any complaints from the children.

And that is exactly how it should be! Thank you for sharing! :smiling angel:

It's just not worth it, especially at Christmastime when there is so much to celebrate and be thankful for! :angel:

our family has always gotten along around the holidays and it has always been a positive time for the kids and adults the same. I am proud of my family for not bringing their negative feelings to our holiday celebrations each year. throughout the year there is always drama but not during the holidays.presents

I lucked out this year my oldest nephew got engaged and no one in the family seems to care for her. I thought she was going to be at my house on CE but she has to be at home to see her three kids on visiation day. I did however buy her a present so he can take it to her. That would have put everyone at unease had she come! I haven't met her yet but have seen her court files which are real nasty!
