Botox or Babysitting that is the Question

With Christmas and Hanukkah just around the corner our budgets are bound to get a hefty dent in them. With presents, parties, wining and dining. However a survey done by US News shows that many families are starting cut costs in some pretty peculiar ways. A number of parents are getting rid of their nannies not their wrinkles. Anti-aging is clearly the top priority. During the hectic holiday months, Mom and Dad are opting for Botox as opposed to babysitting. But is our societies Botox addiction getting out of hand? Are we turning into wrinkle-ridding junkies?

According to these statistics we are becoming quite OCD about looking young.
First we heard rumors that some people were cutting back on dining out to save their nickels and dimes for Botox injections, but now to sacrifice a social life or tending to children seems to be slightly out of hand. If we progress in this line of obsession what sacrifices will be making next to get rid of pesky wrinkles and aging lines?
