Emma Tapping from the Isle of Man has been on the receiving end of criticism from internet users who questioned her parenting abilities after a photo of the gifts she got her kids for Christmas went viral. Emma got her kids three hundred gifts and despite the criticisms, she is adamant she has done nothing wrong.
"The way I see it is you can buy your kids two presents or 200 presents - it's the way you bring them up," she told British television program This Morning . "My kids know the difference between right and wrong, they appreciate everything they get, and they don't get spoiled throughout the year."
Tapping also said that she spent around $2,276 on the gifts and does not even own a credit card.
She stated that she refused to pay full price for any of the gifts she purchased, opting for bargain hunting by following the advice of British financial adviser Martin Lewis.
"I'm not rich. I literally start from January, use every bargain that I can, and I shop all year round to make the pile as big as it is, and I start wrapping presents in August," she said. "And I do it all year round to give my kids the best Christmas I can."
