We did something similar years ago .Boys were just plain greedy, and forgot the true meaning of CHRISTmas and we warned them several times that if they did not get along we were going to donate all of their CHRISTmas gifts to the Children's home who would appreciate them. Got alot of flack from parents, relatives and even school teachers Come Christmas day... we loaded up kids ( I think they were 7&9) and took gifts to shelter and Abuse Center...

That was the best thing we ever did... When they saw the smiles on the children's faces they changed their toon... We gave them some presents later... which they have appreciated since... They still remind each other (18 & 20 yrs old) about the humbug Christmas and give every year to the children in need :} MERRY CHRISTmas
