What were the worst and the best Christmas gifts you ever got?

The worst was the one I just told in another thread, my grandfather offered me a comb and a cheap deodorant :smile: The best one so far was a fan when I was around 4yo, I never been happier with a gift before. Stayed all night doing robot voice on it :smile:

What were yours?

Worst was when I asked Santa for a cat and didnā€™t get one :angry:
Best was this remote control car I got my parents were like ā€œyouā€™re not gonna like itā€ then I played with it for like a year straight

The best was probably a NES when I was around 5 y/o. I canā€™t remember getting a bad gift.

Thatā€™s a lovely story, glad you were happy about it :smile:

When I was a little kidā€¦ LOVED my blocks as big as meā€¦ I could build a lot of fortsā€¦

When I was a teenā€¦ my first surf board.

As far as worseā€¦ I have some family who loves to give us a box of odd second hand stuffā€¦ every year.

So farā€¦ the fish plate in the shape of a fish is the most useless thing Iā€™ve ever gotten.

I was living at a group home and the staff bought us all a bunch of gifts and placed them around the tree. Turns out they were things like bathroom cleaner, carpet powder, sponges, and such for cleaning the house. Such dickheads.

I am very very lucky to of been placed and adopted when i frist got to meet the my Aermcian family, i was a older child a teenager with a huge list of porblems is like the most unwanted mix in a adoptie child most family want as young as possible around 8 months so a baby does leave the older ones form six and up in the dust the teen age ones we get to boarding schooling throw into work if you about 14 years basiclly give up on having a family to you of age to have your own as your too old to be wanted
Alot of adoptions are pure luck and mine was timed before the ban on them more so being how complex my case was to all the legal charges and court things on top

Yeah, that is lucky. Iā€™m happy for you. How old are you derpygirl?

19 i may seem different i seen a lot more than most normal 19 year olds have

Youā€™re young, I thought you were a lot older. Still a lot to live. Donā€™t worry about being different, we all are.

Idk I would love to adopt a young teenager or soā€¦that way they instantly become my friend with out all the tough parts of raising young children

My little cousins are menaces

Iā€™ve thought about adopting like a 13 year old

Probably never will/would qualify but Iā€™d rather adopt that age than 8 months

Parents wanna be able to control their kids whole lives itā€™s dumb

How old? i know i typoed in post way back about ages, just say i was doing adult ā€œthingsā€ before i was in double years, i have grown up alot faster then most do. I have a crime record something im not proud of i can go into all that in a different post if people want to know, it maybe triggering for some
somethings was outside of my skill to control body age is never a judge of a persons exp of life. but people do completely judge solo on it
