Age to tell kids the truth about Santa  |
|
 I have been talking to different people about their childhood experiences with the holidays. I really cannot remember what age I knew for sure that Santa was a fictional character. I know children that are 4 and know Santa is not real. But I also have seen 12 year olds that still believe that the letter they get in the mail is actually from Santa. This brings me to wonder is there a certain age you should tell your children that Santa is not real (if they dont find out)? If that age has not been reached yet and the child still believes should you make sure they continue with the belief...make sure you tell them there is a Santa when they say there isnt?

1.  amafrias (321) | 4 years ago |  Well eventually someone at school is going to tell them.But me as a parent am not going to tell them anything. They can fake it with me for as long as they want. My sister and I knew long before we finally told my daddy we knew. He was so into Christmas and doing Santa, and we were so into accepting it...We all just kept quiet for a few years..lol we did have a baby brother that we didn't want to spoil it for either..

| DeeBloomers (533) | 4 years ago |  You are right, as soon as they start school someone will tell them, but usually they will fake it for a while, the reason could be that maybe they have younger siblings or maybe they think if they tell their parents they won't get as many gifts, or maybe just because they like the magical feeling that it gives them to believe in Santa, but I think you should let them come to you with the news and not spoil it for them too soon.

| 3. kellifly11 (73) | 4 years ago |  Wow I posted a topic just a second ago about the same thing and this was down at the bottom as a related topic when I finished, sorry! But I can reply to yours, how about that? I think maybe sooner rather than later. I think they will find out at school anyways and I would rather me be the one to tell them. I dont think there is anything wrong with kids knowing we are the ones giving them presents. I actually think that is better for them and will teach them more than believing in a fictional character. I respect the tradition though and it is fun and cute for the young ones so I will not object to it.

| 8. lukesmama (5) | 4 years ago | I know children who still believed at 10, or at least were still hanging on to the belief.
I don't think there is a right age for them to find out, it usually just happens naturally.
When an older child still believes, I think they just don't want to let go of the magic they believed in... who does! | |
