   When the kids were very young, Christmas shopping was fun and easy. We could get goofy things and they'd chew on them or whatever and it was fine. But as they got older, it has become more stressful because they want specific things that are often expensive (or impossibly expensive) and the odds that they change their mind about what they *really* wanted in the time between ordering and Christmas is very very high and then it ends up being disappointing for them or something and what can you do?

     @bigzaphod My potential future children would receive a basic income ("allowance"). This would hopefully free up holidays to just be sentimental occasions.
