My kids got into a big fight a couple years ago because the single one (Roxann) wanted to draw names. She complained that it wasn't fair to her because she was single and couldn't afford to buy for everybody. So, in addition to us buying for all the kids, we took her shopping and paid for her gifts to the other kids. We said it would only be that one time, never again.
Roxann started the gift drawing thing again last year and the others told her that what she was doing wasn't fair, that it wasn't their fault that she couldn't find anybody to marry, etc. She only wanted to look at what she had to give, not what she was getting. They told her not to get them anything, just to buy for the kids. I told her to pose with each one separately, make a digital picture, print it out and give it to them. Everyone seemed to love that idea.
She has always and will always be our problem child!
