How old were you, and what caused you to stop believing?

I stopped believing around 11. Today you are lucky if 8 yr olds believe. It was a happy day for my Mother and also sad that I figured it out. Let todays youth hang onto childhood fantasies as long as they can. It is important for them to believe for now and in the future for how they are with their children.

When I asked for a dog. My mother always asked me what I asked for, and I got it. But she was afraid of dogs. So, I finally figured it out. I was around 6ish.

I was about 11 when I offically stopped believing in Santa Clause, even before I was 11 I had my doubts. I think I stopped believing him because of hearing kids talk about it at school.

I think that I was around 8 or 9 and it must have not been too tramatic of a discovery for me because I honestly don't remember who told me or how I found out.

I never stopped believing in santa (or Jólasveinar as we call them in Iceland). I still believe in all 13 of them. Yes I know, we are lucky to have 13 Santas for only 300.000 people but they are very real. Greetings from the North Pole
