To think people are ridiculous for moaning at the little things on Christmas, forgetting the true meaning?

This season is about Jesus. Celebrating his birth and the amazing things he did for us. Not getting the latest gadgets and drinking games. Although all of that can be fun, did you take your children to church this year?? Teach your children about God

Christmas means different things to different families. For many people the Christian side is only a small or no part of it which is absolutely fine.

My child does know about God, also knows about Hindu gods, and Norse gods and a little of the Greek gods.

She knows all the made up stories that some people think are real.

Jesus isn't the reason.

Not in this house. Midwinter break here. No religion at all.

The season is about the Solstice. Jesus wasn't born anywhere near this date. Teach your children about Paganism.
