An Aussie mother spent over an estimated $2,000 to shower her three kids with hundreds of presents — and she’s refusing to be mommy-shamed for it.
Kristy Nowak recently uploaded Facebook photos of the piles of gifts she’s purchased for her family.
“I’m usually not this organized,” she captioned. She’s been collecting gifts for the last five months. “A few years ago I left it to the last four days and panicked. I swore I’d never do that again.”

Nowak’s post has sparked an online debate about how many presents parents should give to their kids during the holidays.

But Nowak shot back at her critics.
