24 Christmas Parenting Tweets for Moms Counting Down the Days to Finally Put Away the Elf on the Shelf

Welcome, moms of the internet! Growing up, all we had was Santa. Of course, every family took the idea of Jolly Ole Saint Nick to different levels. Some parents simply put more Christmas presents under the tree while the kids were asleep. Whether or not your parents used different wrapping for "Santa's presents" depended on their level of commitment to the bit. Other families encouraged their kids to leave out cookies to find missing or chomped on in the morning. The most dramatic parents maybe even had a neighbor or uncle dress up in a costume and stomp around on the roof to fool and entertain their peeking children. 

These holiday rituals were really only required to be observed on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, but kids these days expect a month-long performance from their parents thanks to the introduction of Elf on the Shelf. This Christmas tradition has websites and Facebook pages dedicated to providing novel ways to convince your children that their elves have come alive at night and committed mischievous acts on the days leading to Christmas. The pressure has been so great for some parents that they have been forced to throw the thing away and inform their children that he was "needed by Santa for a special mission." If you're sick of this god forsaken doll, scroll down for some Christmas parenting memes!
