Christmas presents: is your teen ungrateful? 27
What do you think of this episode? Do you have any topics you'd like me to cover?
Christmas is marketed as a time of magic and joy, but when it comes to your teenagers does it feel more like pressure - to deliver expensive gifts - and disappointment?
One of our regular listeners has asked us to research and discuss how to deal better with their lack of gratitude when things don't live up to their expectations.
