Gift Giving Ettiquette Part Deux

teleea's picture

Pitcture this scene:

Its Christmas morning. Two 3yr olds and an 8yr old are still clad in jammies opening what few presents their parents could buy. There is a ring of the doorbell. "It's Santa!" screams one of the wee boys in delight. The door is opened and there stands a jolly red elf bearing two garbage bags full of gift-wrapped presents -- all with only one name on them. Imagine the dissappointment the other 3yr old felt. Now imagine the grief 'Santa' went through.

Did the 3-yo who received the gifts share with the other 3-yo, anyway?

That had to be a hard situation to manage, as a step/parent.
