Eight in 10 parents worry Christmas will lose its sparkle this year because they don’t have the time – or money – to make it magical.
A poll of 2,000 mums and dads found 86 per cent want to make the festive season feel special – but a third (32 per cent) don’t think they can this year.
Of those, 45 per cent claim they are too busy, while 33 per cent are feeling pressure from work deadlines.
