One year, as a joke, I included one of those and made up (well they weren't all made up, some actually happened but I chose to hide those events in a group of made up bad things) a bunch of unfortunate things my kids had accomplished in the past year. "Mikey continues to get caught shop-lifting adult movies from the local smut shop"....I thought it was hysterical. Nobody sent me their glory reports after that.
Haha! Yes I’ve received those long letters too, tucked into a Christmas card. Not too many of these though, thankfully!
