Guest guest Posted July 15, 2001 Report Share Posted July 15, 2001 This probably seems like an odd thing to talk about in July but here goes.... At the grand old age of 4, Steffi asked whether Santa is real. We already go throug monsters aren't real, etc but I'm a bit nonplussed on this one. First, I don't want to spoil it for her but second, I don't want to spoil it for her friends if she goes around saying he isn't. I still believe in the magic of Christmas (see my other nostalgia post about winter weather) although I know for sure Santa doesn't bring anything! We talk openly to her about most things - she has a hang up about people dying at the moment - and this afternoon had a discussion about how people have to die to make room for more people otherwise we wouldn't have any room for furniture here and there'd be twenty people living with us and sleeping on the floor and we wouldn't be able to walk to the shop cos the streets would be too crowded. So, when did your children stop believing in Santa and the Tooth Fairy (she's also got a couple of slightly wobbly teeth ATM) and were you the one to break it to them? -- Sue Melbourne, Australia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
