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

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.

Some people talked about what their moms did for them, or what they would do in a similar situation.

Some appreciated her point, but were unable to prevent themselves from purchasing gifts.

A few were saddened by the baby not getting anything for Christmas.

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!
