I have never felt the need to tell my children that there is a Santa Claus, yet they come home with these stories and I am expected to go along with this. I see nothing wrong with telling them the truth that Santa Claus is a story SOME parents tell their children.

Santa Claus will always exist-if there are children to believe in him.\n\nSanta is about the spirit of goodwill-not an actual person.

I'll give you £1 if you can give me proof that he is the real Santa.  When I saw him last year I whispered something very special in his ear.  If you can tell me what it was I will pay up the cash - otherwise you can keep him because he is not real.

As you can see God does not exist.  God only exists in the imaginations of people who still believe in Santa Claus.

Ok, here's a secret. Santa is not real, he doesn't really live in the North pole.  Sorry.

Santa's not real?!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! My parents told me Santa wasn't real at a very young age. My family was very religious and they didn't want me to Skew what they felt was the true meaning of Christmas(Jesus) So I never really took the news that hard...the problem was getting me to stop telling other kids Santa wasn't real. I felt it was my 5 year old duty to tell them the truth...needless to say not many people liked me in kindergarten.

I don't know how unique it is....but my older kids are really (I mean REALLY starting to question how real Santa is) And I have two younger kids that still believe in Santa and will for sometime.\n\nFor the last few years we put flour down in front of the fireplace. And we let the kids do this.  When they are asleep we get one of my husbands boots and make BOOT tracks or Santa tracks to the Christmas tree. \n\nIt does make a little mess but the vaccum cleaner, get it right up.\n\nMy kids are ALWAYS amazed at it!  But it is our tradition and one that will be carried out for at least 8 more years.

well some people believe that the only way you go to the fire place is if you refuse to believe in him.\n\nthe similarities between god and santa claus are uncanny, except if you are bad, santa only punishes you with no presents on christmas but god makes you BURN!

When I was 3 yrs. old I really trully believed in Santa Clause.  My mom put me to bed early on Christmas Eve.  As I was upstairs in my room for a little while I heard some rustling and whispering going on downstairs.  My immediate response was " that's Santa!"  it was a good thing I wasn't able to go down the steps like my older siblings or my parents.  I went one step at a time with both feet.  I didn't get very far perhaps 3 steps and my mom heard me and asked "what are you doing up out of bed?"  but mom I said "I hear Santa down there!" mom told me he wasn't here yet but I'd best get to sleep so he would stop here to bring everybody their gifts.  I remembered I was worried about that and I was afraid I had spoiled Christmas for everyone and me.\n\nBy the next morning, I awoke and I had plenty of toys and nice clothes to wear.  Santa came after all!!\n\nWhat about you?  What was your most memorable Christmas as a child?  What made it exceptional?\n\nGood, positive childhood memories are precious treasures to each one of us.

I think christmas is nothing more than crass commercialism masquerading as holiday bliss!  But it gets me some paid vacation time.  I really don't want to celebrate it but I will give presents to the kids.  However I would not lie to my kids about santa claus.  I think they need to just know the truth from day one.  I want my kids to be able to think intelligently and be able to see past their surroundings.  I believe that this skill needs to start developing as soon as possible.
