What excellent examples of bad parenting. It almost seems like a competition to some of these parents... see who can throw the most lavish and outrageous party for their kid.
Oh, and my birthday is worst of all... December 24th. Never had a true birthday party when I was little because everyone was busy doing their own holiday thing. I'm over that, but I still hate how it always seems like an afterthought to everyone because they're so focused on Christmas... "Oh, right... it's your birthday. You don't mind that your gift is wrapped in Santa Claus paper, do you?"
