What to do when kids’ pricey holiday wishes exceed your budget
Q: As our boys have got bigger, so too have their Christmas wishes. Now that they are both teenagers, their wishes are at a whole new level. Our youngest son would like a new video game console, controllers, and games. One of his older brothers is wishing for a new laptop with specifications we’ve never heard of so that he can game with his younger brother.

We always try to fulfil at least some of their wishes, along with a family ski trip over New Year’s to make Christmas and the holidays memorable. It’s not that we’re behind with our budget or that we finance extravagant lifestyles for our boys, but the wishes this year caught us by surprise.

How can we deal with this without ruining Christmas for our kids? ~Sebastian Read More
