The presents thing irks me as well. They like to portray that a small family bakery is funding their kids…yet don’t ever seem to shop modestly…at least not since the early ‘kids and counting’ where Noel was shown to be doing what looked like at the time to be genuine budgeting.
The younger the child, the bigger the pile of presents. That doesn’t make much sense, as kids get older they have stronger preferences, so if anything it is the older kids who should have the majority of the present find.
Of course it’s nice to treat a child on their birthday and give them things to open, but seeing as they must have plenty of hand-me-down toys and clothes…there isn’t much need to buy anything at all. A young child doesn’t know the difference between an old doll or a new one, for example, they aren’t that aware of branding and the latest models of the different toys, or at least shouldn’t be.
We also know they don’t have the storage for what they are buying, so constantly buying toys and then taking them away could also be cruel. In the same way that Sue is addicted to being pregnant…I also think she gets the same adrenaline rush from seeing a small child in front of a pile of presents larger than themselves. Maybe she didn’t get many presents as a child and is living out her childhood dreams through her young children.
Wonder why they are getting priority passports processed? Why can’t they plan ahead like normal people and apply for passports in an adequate timeframe. They clearly haven’t learnt anything from when their laziness in putting in the applications was televised previously. Look on the bright side Sue, at least not being pregnant means there will be no restrictions on flying for you.
