We all work so hard to make sure nobody exposes the business for the kids.

I honestly feel weird about it. It’s like I’m totally lying to this kid.

I remember that time when the reporter came to Santa and he's fake so santa decked him and put him to the figure four leg lock.

"if you don't think this is the real Santa, give me a hell no!"
I love that the toughest S.O.B. either believes in Santa or is still nice enough not to spoil the illusion

My parents eventually explained to me that Santa is real, but not a person.... it's an idea/feeling. My Grandma (and thus my Dad) were obsessed with the Christmas season. My Dad still says the "fun" stuff is from Santa and the "socks/underwear-type" of gifts are from Mom and Dad..... even after we found out the truth. That's how I will explain it to my daughter.

Santa had a bigger ego than Hulk Hogan, as he insisted on going over the Martians AND Satan himself.

I never went through with it, but as a Jewish kid, I wanted to do nothing more than to tell my friends that Santa wasn’t real

Despite my username, because I have one Christian parent we celebrated both Christian and Jewish holidays when I was a kid.
I felt very betrayed and upset when I found out Santa was not real for several reasons:
- My parents had lied to me.
- This logically meant that there was also no Easter Bunny or Tooth Fairy, which was also upsetting.
- It made me question the existence of God, because I figured it was Santa for adults essentially, and didn't develop a firm belief in God until I was in my 20's because of this.
- I felt bad for my father. This dude worked his ass off to take care of four kids and a stay at home wife, and for years I thought some asshole had elves make this shit for us, when it was my father spending a fortune every year on one day (and he wasn't even a Christian, he never celebrated Christmas until he met my mother). And he was a military man, so while he wasn't poor he certainly wasn't made of money. I don't have kids, but if I did I don't think I could stand busting my ass to get them what they want and then letting them think some imaginary person got it for them.

I don't have kids, but if I did I don't think I could stand busting my ass to get them what they want and then letting them think some imaginary person got it for them. In my case, it was different. I had my beliefs, but it wasn't until I hit the double-digits age range that it started to dwindle and in the back of my mind, I had suspected that Santa was a myth. But I didn't feel betrayed. I realized certain things, but if kids believed in it, I didn't want to ruin their fun. I was actually calm about it and like how that line in The Santa Clause said, and how Roddy Piper once said in a Christmas edition of Primetime Wrestling, think of Santa as a state of mind or Santa is whatever you make of it.

I honestly feel weird about it. It’s like I’m totally lying to this kid. I gained a step niece, lives abroad so don't see her much. Last time I did we made the most of it had fun, built trust, we get along brilliantly then she asks if Santa is real! I wasn't in on this con from the beginning, it's not fair to include me at the end, she clearly suspects it's BS but I still have to lie and presumably fail her test.

I actually can't say when or how I found out Santa wasn't real. I think one day I just realized he was made up and went 'ok then.'
