This is interesting. I was raised with Santa, Easter Bunny, Halloween and now find myself feeling ambivalent at best about all of it. What is the tree all about??
I was raised with all that also and it was also part of church life. My church did Halloween for the kids. I've heard a few trafficking survivors say the tree represents the penis. I think it's mentioned in this video as well. As I type this with my first Christmas tree decorated in about seven years. Long story just haven't felt like decorating or celebrating for several years big one missing grandma at Christmas.
