    The best part of Elf on the Shelf is all the inappropriate pictures that are out there!

    Creepiest thing this year... even though there's no actual resemblance, those creepy elves reminds me of the clown in the "Poltergeist" movie... Glad, I don't have one...

    Yea we don't do elf on the shelf. One, they are super creepy and the thought of something (no matter if it's real or not!) "watching" my children irks me, and I don't like that s/he "reports back to Santa". I've also felt it is this competitive thing between moms to create the biggest scenarios...and I'm just not into the whole mom-competition thing. We did start this year, however, doing "Kindness Elves" after a good friend of mine showed me the idea online.

    The posts about them do talk about a Christian God, and we aren't Christian, however we fell in love with this idea and are happy to be making it a tradition in our family.

    About 24 hrs after watching that Elf on the Shelf Show on CBS, my 9 yr old goes: "I think that Elf on the Shelf is for people Santa doesn't trust. And that's why we don't have one, because he trusts us.".

    Damn right kid, damn right.
