TikTok users were left divided at the woman’s Christmas tradition - some weren’t a fan and said that they wouldn’t want to be part of her family, but others thought it was a brilliant idea that will raise children to be grateful for their belongings.Another added: “If this was me when I was a kid I would cry.”One user noted: “I think this is perfect. There is WAY too much focus on consumption with the holiday. It’s not what it should be about.
A second agreed: “I love this! We keep it pretty simple & do some needs like clothes/shoes we know they’d love. More gifts don’t make it a more magical day.” Someone else posted: “I love this. Very creative. You are raising kids that will be thankful for everything they have.”
