I can see myself doing something like that when Jax is older. I'm not entirely comfortable with spoiling him like this, but I think it's partly a solo mom pride thing--giving him more than what I had, showing (who?) that I can do this holiday thing without a man, and so on. It's problematic but makes me feel good? I don't know...

Addicted to shopping...for my son
I understand. Just be careful, because kids notice things, and start behaving with a certain expectation; it can really backfire unless it's tempered.

Oh I hear that. I will say that all other times of the year, the focus is very much on "what did you do to earn a treat?" Jax gets an allowance for following the rules and cleaning up his own messes. Eventually, he'll have to do more to earn it as he learns that cleaning up after himself is just what you do (no reward for doing what you're supposed to do!). I'm conscientious of not raising another entitled male, belieeeeeeeve me. ;)
