Our decs come down the day after boxing day, regardless of kids. What I do find odd is people keeping them up way into Jan.
Ours stay up until 12th Night (5 January) - well the tree does anyway.
12th night is to me the correct time to take them down.
But then I don't think they should be put up too early. The 1st December is way too early for a house to be covered in Christmas decorations.
If you follow tradition with 12th Night to take them down then why not follow the tradition of putting them up? - the start of Advent which is the fourth Sunday before Christmas and this year it is 3rd December.
