[QUOTE="SRL, post: 102032, member: 701"] Sorry, you're having to deal with this, but the reality out there is that there will always be kids out there who challenge this. My oldest came home from kindergarten one day and informed me that "X still believes in Santa, but me and Scott set him straight." I was horrified of course--just because we didn't do Santa doesn't mean I wanted it spoiled for others. It was way before Christmas and I hadn't even thought to give him my annual don't-ruin-it-for-others lecture. My oldest was terrified--and I mean TERRIFIED--at every Santa we ran into: inflatables, statues, pictures, real ones. We couldn't go anywhere without him feeling terrorized by the old guy during December so finally one day I told him the truth. difficult child had even more serious and widespread anxiety problems so we didn't bother trying to get him to buy into it. Honestly it made it a lot easier on us. As fun as Santa can be, I'm glad I didn't have to deal with it because he wouldn't have been easy. [/QUOTE]
