It sucks making money decisions at Christmastime

My daughter has been taking piano lessons the last few weeks but she hates to practice every night. Today I'm going to cancel the lessons because the $50 a month I'm spending on them is needed to buy her Christmas presents. She wants a microscope and a present from Santa. She still believes even at 9 years old and I'm not about to blow it for her now. Maybe I can restart the lessons in the Spring but for right now I can't afford it if I want to give her a happy Christmas. Have any of you had to give something up in order to get something else you wanted?

I think thats a good thing you are doing, i have had to give my house up for my ex girlfriend because we had a child together so i had to leave, that house was mine but i gave it to her, but i made her sign a solicitors letter to say that our child will get that house as soon as he reaches his 18th Birthday, the house was passed down from my grandad to me so now i have passed it onto my Son, thanks
