Actually, if you tell your kids there is no Santa, they will know you are lying.

Why? Cause they'll see Santa at the mall, the grocery store, the downtown district, etc.

And you are trying to tell them the truth that there is no Santa? Gosh, dad, don't you look dumb? LOL! (No, Ferd, this isn't directed at you or anyone, but that's what the kids will say!!)


I always told my kids about Santa. He does exist.



So does the tooth fairy and Easter Bunny.



How do they exist?


















I am all those things!!!

So how is that lying? I don't think it is.

Santa knows when he's sleeping (well, don't you?) and knows when he's awake, been bad or good (don't you?).

The song isn't wrong. Parents have always been "santa". It's not lying.

The fact is, "creating" live objects from imaginary or inanimate objects is natural for children. It promotes creativity and imagination. But THEY GROW OUT OF IT. They begin to recognize the difference between real and imaginary at a young age. Or... at least some do. It apprears some don't.
I would dare say kids no barbie, teddy bears and etc... are not actual live beings like santa is protrayed.

To say there someone up north watcthing you and will reward accoriding to your works is far different.
