I think you're in the wrong thread.
I can't stand most of my family and in the past I've been subjected to an excessive amount of hours spent at whoever I'm dating at the time's families, who I generally have liked better than my own family, but still not enough to spend a ridiculous 12 hours with while sober. Also every year I'm around kids I'm just appalled at how much their parents spoil them. Maybe it's just me, but I fail to see why an eleven year-old needs or deserves an iPad. Yet most of these kids still end up bitching that they didn't get enough or exactly what they wanted.
I'd much rather spend the time having some drinks and watching Die Hard with one of my buddies.
