My kids are grown now, but I NEVER told them all that cr#p about santa, the easter bunny or anything else. And, I told them to never tell the truth to any kid that still believed it. Just let them believe it and one day their parents will break their little hearts and admit that they're liars! They usually get told about santa, the easter bunny, the tooth fairy, the stork and, maybe, the Great Pumpkin all at one time. That's a lot for a 7-9yo to take in at once. And, we wonder why therapists are in such high demand!!! And, that's after THEY take their turn and lie to YOU about what their problem really is!
