My parents' idea for Christmas tradition was let us open our presents on Christmas morning, then immediately put us in the car and drive hours to see relatives that I would only see once per year (on Christmas). So I'd sit around at someone's house completely miserable thinking about the fun I could be having at home. Sometimes it snowed and we couldn't leave the house, and it was the best thing ever.

Everyone with kids, please don't do this to your kids.
