Aww...thanks. You're amazing too for reading through all that.

Hey Pandas, Am I A Coward Or Too Rebellious? (Closed)

Yes. I've been simplifying the holidays by giving a set amount of gift cards/gifts for each family. They don't like it that way but I am okay with it now. Thank you for reading and sharing with me.

Stop giving so generously for holidays and birthdays. You never said anything about your relationship with your nieces or nephews. You can still give them something, just give yourself an amount for each gift. Give the adults a card and save the money you would have spent on presents. Simplify your life, they don't need to be such a big part of it, especially when they make you so unhappy.
