Maybe she hasn't got a car on finance or an expensive sky subscription? look at the bland joyless git in the article... 'my kids get nowt'! Good for you you 1970s reject.
The tree looks ace the house looks inviting and warm and the kids will be happy... It's all about quantity when they're little, you could wrap up a packet of jelly tots and it would be the best present ever.
This is jealousy more than anything, justifies calling her a crap mum and making sexist comments.... blurgh, makes me sick.

Who cares?.... it's not your house, it's not your tree and they are not your kids...
She might have, so what.

This pic has been doing the rounds on fb for weeks.

It's not really that much money tbf especially when you see some saying they spend the same amount on 1 kid.

Ok, so it all looks a bit chavvy to me.
Less is more, a decent expensive gift and a few stocking fillers is fine by me.
Then again, judging by the jugs on her, all a bit superficial.

can we all maybe give her the benefit of the doubt... imagine how excited her kids would be when they first saw that pile of presents. You know damn well it put a huge smile on their faces. and there's nothing wrong with that.

Exactly. I hate the judging. You could argue she set herself up for it by posting about it but I'm sure it was just an innocent social media post like any other. Just let her be and not make this out to be something it isn't.

every kid likes to wake up on Christmas morning to a load of presents. A lot of the fun is in unwrapping rather than the cost of the present. It may seem bah humbug to an adult ... but so what

This.

It doesn't mean her kids are spoilt either. Even if she is spoiling them this ONE DAY, don't most parents? People judging her parenting skills because she's bought loads of christmas presents

This was much my thinking too Kazanne.

I do however take Niamh's point too as to appreciation of them really.

Totally, the nasty judgy comments are really distasteful. I hope they don't take the shine off her Christmas

So long as it's money earned from working she can do what she likes. It's the ones on benefits, who brag about how much they (we) spend on expensive gifts that gets my goat.

I agree. I don't think she should be judged for the way she spends her money. Especially as it's not for herself and for her kids.

I also agree with the posts above saying that something like a TV or a games console and a couple of games to go along with it would probably cost around the same or even more for one child alone. So £500 isn't crazy. The presents just look like lots of cheap/reasonable priced items. It's not the price spent it's just the big number of presents which just makes people automatically think "omfg spoilt brats! " etc etc

if she saved up herself so she could indulge her kids for once, probably the one time she could and then she gets the whole world ****ing sticking their spoons in and loose women giving their bitchy ****ing views
just ****ing piss off and leave people alone for christ sake
how dare they call themselves a news provider
