my brother ( 1 year older than me ) came home one day in third grade and was upset because one of his classmates insisted that his dad was Santa because he saw him putting presents under the tree. It took my mom nearly an hour to convice my brother that Brian's dad was not Santa. So me and my brother stayed up and snuck out into the hall christmas eve, determined to see if she was right or not, and saw her putting the presents under the tree. The cat was out of the bag.

I really never understood where Santa came frome. My brother has 3 kids and his two oldest are at the age they will be told if not this year then next year and he said " yep, it's almost time for thier first heartbreak." Seems kind of stupid to me. Kids look to parents ( when really young ) as if they are gods only to be told that they lied to you for years and years. I don't see why we can't just tell our kids that there is no santa and that we give them gifts at christmas because we love them ( or something like that .) sometimes I think having stanta is more for the parents than the kids.
