Children's Christmas

In a cruel twist of fate, my partner and I lost our jobs in November and have had some wages withheld too. We have three beautiful teenage children, one with Aspergers who won't understand why we can't have a Christmas, his siblings are more understanding and have said that family is what Christmas is about, but I know they are just trying to make us feel better about the situation we have found ourselves in, I know they are gutted..this breaks my heart that not only will I not be able to provide a tree let alone presents but also a traditional Christmas dinner, all things that make Christmas joyful for children.
