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

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!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
