It has been sometime since we've had one. A thread where tempers flare and religion and politics clash with culture and patriotism.
So.......................... If your ready for one...................................
What age were you when you found out the truth about santa claus?
For those of you who still think he is real, leave this thread now!urple: urple: urple:
Maybe you were never raised to think otherwise. If you have kids of your own , what are your values and family traditions...
Personally, I was brought up to think santa was real and I guess I found out somewhere around 7 or so. It really didn't bother me a whole bunch as I recall. As a parent, I chose to not progress the myth(lie- I choose to call it) on my kids. My kids know all about the story of santa, and frosty, and rudolph and all of the traditional things, but we treat it like it is, a story, for entertainment. My kids know where their presents come from and I think (hope) they might actually appreciate them a little more.
the whole story of santa to me steals the focus off of the reason we traditionally celebrate the holiday to begin with, the birth of Jesus Christ, and that is where I make sure to teach my kids the values of this holiday.
