Social media? The competition of flaunting how much debt we’re willing to amass to seem exciting? It’s “Keeping up with the Jones’s” on steroids. People feel compelled to post pictures as some sort of elite status merit badge.
I used to get presents for Easter as a kid. I’m 40 now.

It's seemingly always occurred in non-impoverished areas.

My niece got a basket of candy. She also got her first big girl bible. We were supposed to take her to her first mass today. Stupid virus.

Easter like Christmas and Halloween, is a pagan holiday.

I always got a dozen baseballs for Easter. My in laws give the kids bathing suits and beach stuff.

Ask the Easter Bunny he's the one delivering the stuff.

We got the occasion small item other than candy and maybe clothes to wear to church back in the day. I’m 58 and grew up poor. I do recall some folks getting Easter outfits every Easter but not actual presents.
Not that I really care what other people do.

I think I made this thread last year.
Spoiled-arse kids.

Because people want to “brag” or get likes on social media.

Nearly 20 years. Just another example of how US citizens have too much income from our stock market shares due to outsourcing everything to China, India, Hungary, etc. We're a fat, rich, spoiled kid that is used to doing what we please because we let downtrodden foreigners do the grunt work, while we sit in air conditioned offices checking our that ETF price on our iPhone.

Yea I don’t really think this is as much of a thing as people make it out to be every year. We just got our kids a little basket, and a Polaris.
Well done.

My 5 year old nephew got candy, a LEGO bat mobile and a new little tackle box.
ETA: My parents always did candy and a few fishing lures because we were all about fishing. Good times. I’ve been thinking about dad a lot lately. Wish my brothers and I could spend another day at the camp in Grand Isle fishing with him.
