PSA for Thanksgiving

As we all know, Thanksgiving is vastly approaching. Before we know it, we'll all be sitting at home with our families (hopefully) doing nothing at all. To me, Thanksgiving is the best holiday next to Christmas. It's a day when you can eat delicious (free) food and watch football all day long and not feel bad about it. You can be lazy and no one will judge you for it. But some people are missing the point of Thanksgiving. Instead of spending time with their family, some people would rather spend time shopping for good deals on Christmas gifts or just items for themselves. To skip quality family time on a HOLIDAY no less in favor of saving a little money on a material gift is appalling and sad. As a result, store workers are forced to give up their family time in order to work for their employers. This doesn't seem right to me at all. There should be a law forbidding any shopping or stores being open on Thanksgiving. So, I urge all of you: spend your Thanksgiving with your family because in the end, they're the only ones that matter. Material items can be bought, quality family time cannot.
