I am sure your family will understand if things are a little difficult, but the thing to remember is this sort of situation is a 2 way street, as they could very well be in the same situation. The main thing to remember at this time of year is it is not about "material things."
Financial hardship can be a tricky thing. Some times it is events beyond our control, other times it can be things as simple as addiction, gambling, job loss, etc. I am in no way judging or assuming, everyone has their issues and skeletons in the closet. The point is to do what is right for you, not for everyone else.
