Take all their stuff back, and replace it with a good a**-whupping.

The only things I've ever had taken back didn't fit. I have gladly accepted sweaters, board games and button down shirts I'll never wear. I thought that was what kids did.

I've never returned anything I've been given for Christmas, unless it was something I already had or didn't fit.

Ungrateful brats.

The best part about Christmas? My family together under one roof. I've never tweeted before, but a disappointed Chrismas tweet for me would sound something like this:

Dissapointed that my aunt couldn't make it for Chrismas! Wasn't the same this year.

After glancing through that, I'm actually pleased that:

a) My happiness is not as dependent on material objects.

b) They're feeling pain. Hopefully, that's a growing step for them.

I wonder if the suicide threats are real.

Hopefully somebody assumes they are and calls the appropriate authorities.

Thats EXACTLY what kids do. The ones that are raised right anyway.

Revolting...

I'm 18, and my family has never been rich. Every Christmas, I might get $50 worth of stuff, and I'm quite thankful, because Christmas isn't about getting stuff. These brats apparently don't get that.

I was born about 40 years too late.

Wow and I felt bad because of how much my parents spent on me this year.

I work with a boatload of self-entitled little pricks daily. NOTHING pisses me off more than the attitude of self-entitlement. Why don't you go EARN something instead, scumbag???

Notice though they can publicly show how selfish and ungrateful they are, but they would never say it to their parent's face.

Christmas is not about gifts, it's about family. Personally, I have come to abhor the gift giving, BUY, BUY, BUY, mentality that surrounds Christmas now.

I also like how probably 90% of the people complaining are doing so because they either didn't get a car or didn't get an Apple product.

Saw something similar earlier.

Yeah, take the stuff back from the little ****s.

+1 to the others who only ever returned something because it didn't fit.

Quite a list of of first world problems there, kids. Try starving near to death for a year or so and then tell us how you're gonna slit your wrists over a fricken iPhone.
