Single mother, who has son with special needs, bawls when Secret Santa shows up with 3 special gifts

[@slotzilla1627]

I wish they would have given more to these folks... I bet grocery store gift cards and some Christmas money would have been a Huge Blessing also❤❤❤

[@brenne8030]

Yeah I love most all of these videos but there’s sometimes I think Naw…you could give them a little more there’s just a little bit more need than some people I don’t understand who makes this decision but this one wasn’t a good one , sorry can’t always agree

[@emmajp_9385]

@@brenne8030 I think the decision will be based on the letter they receive so it’s really up to the person nominating to say just what situation they’re in. If they only make it seem like they need two chairs, they got the best two chairs. When they turned up there, they probably realised they could have done with more but the secret Santa money will have all been divided up by then and decisions made.

[@stevemurrell6167]

I agree, I said the same thing when they went to her front door......"a nice little cheque would be the icing on the cake".....but it was a lovely gift all the same.

Aw yeah.. I didn't want to say it out loud but I kinda thought the same..... Great that they did this of course!! It was kind of heartbreaking to see the situation they seem to be in.. What a lovely son she has, but also I'm sure they could use a little more help with just the two of them..

Guys, i've watched a loooot of your videos, your really bring joy to some people...BUUUUUTTTT... Some peope really don't appreciate what you do for them... Some people deserve more and get less, others get less and deserve more... When I see tears I cry as well. I'm no sensitive, I've been through hell and back a thousand times, but some people deserve and appreciate more a gift of ...dunno, 100-200 USD, and others don't give a damn about 2-3K you're spending...

did you read the description?

[@marye3974]

Maybe so but it's probably something she wouldn't spend the money on. When you're struggling comfort tends to take a back seat. I think it was a very nice gift. Sometimes it's nice to be treated to something you wouldn't be able to justify spending the extra money on. You have to make some tough decisions when you're on a limited budget.

[@zzzroxyzzz]

Yeah I know how not having nice furniture can just suck. We just have a futon and it's broken, been working extra hours and next check I'll have enough to surprise my husband with a brand new nice sofa so he doesn't have to worry about it. I work for food and anything around the house, I've painted and put up really nice curtains and things on the walls but it will really feel complete with a real couch. he's paying the big bills and takes care of anything that breaks around here so I thought it would be a nice surprise. Can't wait.

[@realist7934]

I see a lot of comments on how they deserved more. I agree but there are so many.... Sorry I mean way too many people in her position that need help. It sucks to see good people not having what they need. But look at how happy she was just to receive so little. I guess I'm saying that be gracious for even the smallest of gifts you receive and not to want more.... Just like that mother was. Yes she and her son need sooooo much more but just look at the joy in her face. And also a message could be sent to all of those who comment about they should have gotten more. That message is that... Even if you have very little in your life.... There is others worse off than you. So even walking up to someone and giving a hug is and could be the biggest thing you could give to someone in need. Or even lending an ear to listen to someone that has no one to talk to and is lonely. We are all out there and need in different ways.
