Sure, you want your kids to be happy at Christmas. Da Boy is definitely going to get some things this year that will make him squee with joy. This still doesn't obviate your role as a parent or the occasional need to say "no, you can't have that ridiculously expensive thing that you'll break the second you lay hands on it."
And maybe if these kids wouldn't stay parked in front of a television on Saturday mornings, they wouldn't be having these issues. Da Boy doesn't watch Saturday TV, and there are several very good reasons for this.
