from my parents... nothing bike related except some carpentry tools I can make sick ladders with, so i'm stoked.

Christmas isn't about getting it's giving!

The bulk of my stuff I gave to myself. My parents gave me $$$ as I told them that having no job money is more usefull then gifts. My girlfriends parents got me some little things I wanted as well as she did. My birthday is the day before (24th) so I get presents on both.

I had a nice family dinner last night, got a few gifts for my B-day and that was good enough for me. Today is just helping around the house and eating dinner. I didn't spend more than $60 on each parent as that was my limit. I'd love to be able to spend more but I understand that it isn't always about spending $$$ or how much of it, it's just having the experience to share with others.

Nope, my pops passed away when I was 8.

yea that does sound that way. But have you read half of the ****ing post on here. I'm not spoiled in any way I'm just dissapointed, in what I got, did u get socks and soap, and lil bit of cash? idk, if you did or not. but after reading half of these post seeing kids get over, 500 bucks worth of amazing bike stuff, i was totally bummed, out. Aha spoiled? **** you I paid for my full bike and all the parts I have on it. So how bout you stfu and judge people when you kno them.
I'm out I don't feel like argueing with people, that don't read the entire posts.

How about you don't post sounding like a whiny 10 year old? Seriously, you paid for your own bike parts. Good for you, why should someone else have paid for it for you?

Boo hoo, some kids really ARE spoiled, so what else is new? They have generous parents and the means to do so. You could be much worse off, so be grateful for what you have.

It's not about hoarding as much crap as you can Christmas morning man....

yea man, thats very true, in all honesty I could care less what i get. I defintely believe that my parents SHOULDN'T have to pay for any of my bike stuff, I' was simply saying how lucky half these kids are for ther parents to be so generous. I am gratefull for what I have, its just nice to have the support that some parents give ther kids in the sport.

Very true, it would be nice to have extra generous parents but hey...some people don't even have parents at all.
