My 1year old neice inform the whole family that it was not the thoughht that counted. She got a gift from a secert santa that she did not like. And I told her it was the thought that counted and she told me it is not. That you either get what she wants or nothen at all. I am really thinking about getting her something really crazy for christmas or maybe nothen at all she really she really needs to understand what getting a gift is really about. I just don't think I can go out of my way to get her something she wants after she said that. What do you think?

Question for you. The introduction says "17" and the question says "1" year old. Which is correct will dictate the answer to the question.

She needs to learn a few things about how this world operates. She'd get nothing from me because my thoughts are pretty contrary to hers.

I do agree with you.
