    sending Christmas cards with pictures of their stupid kids and lists of the "highlights" of their year?

    Nothing like a yearly progress report on people I avoid.

    the progress reports are the funniest.

    we went here!
    we did this!
    my kid is the best!

    but they leave off the dirty laundry stuff that we all know.

    Not wanting kids is ok. Better than being a bad parent.

    Hating kids is weird :wtf: either jelly or a shitty childhood, IMO

    hate is a strong word.

    and jelly certainly doesnt apply

    I just dont want pictures of other people's kids for christmas. Parents are clueless thinking that other people give a fuck about their kid.

    the people who write those "here's what we did" letters are always the same types.

    realtor types.

    I think they just make them for their close relatives and friends, and then everyone who's on the list gets one :dontknow: You could always throw them away. I like seeing some of my friends kids but I'm not a fan of the ones that are more then one page and have many pics and a narrative :grr: Those people can fuck right off
