Mom Sparks Debate After Explaining Why She's Only Getting One Of Her Kids Christmas Presents

TikToker @tiffanychesson explained why she'd be skipping the presents for her infant, remarking how there's 'no point' in buying gifts for a child that young.

This time of year, it's important to realize that people celebrate Christmas in a variety of ways.

You may find out, for example, that your new in-laws open presents in a frenzy rather than a calm and organized fashion. And that's okay!


One TikToker, @tiffanychesson, recently ignited controversy when she said she was opting not to buy presents for her new baby.

Her baby will be only a few months old on Christmas, and will be too young to understand what's going on, the TikToker explained. When he hits his second Christmas, she’ll give him presents, but not this year.

She said she doesn’t mind if friends and family buy him presents, but she just doesn’t see the point.

Most replies to her decision were in support, not anger. Other moms immediately agreed with her plan.

Others made a good point about what older siblings might see as Santa (or their parents) forgetting the new baby.

Really, someone said, it’s about the ambiance of the season, especially for babies.

The older sibling will receive plenty of presents. Next year, so will the baby!

Jerry quits Ben & Jerry's

After nearly half a century of puns, pint-sized protests, and spoon-first diplomacy via Cherry Garcia, Jerry Greenfield is hanging up his scooper.

The “Jerry” in Ben & Jerry’s has resigned after what he says was years of corporate censorship under Unilever—particularly during Trump’s second administration, when speaking up for civil rights suddenly required either a permission slip or a pink slip.

An Official Courtroom Sketch Of Luigi Mangione Is Going Viral For All The Wrong Reasons

Before cameras, courtroom sketch artists served a purpose. Even now, a sketch artist can provide visuals to accompany reporting of trials when no other form of recording during court sessions is allowed.

The artists try to stay close to what the defendant, witnesses, and everyone else look like, but they can sometime veer into the caricature, as Luigi Mangione has found during his heavily publicized court appearances.
