Are you really going make your children believe in Santa Claus, Easter Bunny Etc?

Call it what you want. My parents cut that out early...but made me appreciate them and what they did to make me happy.

Plus most of these holidays are pagan ideals that ppl follow because they are sheep to capitalism **hops off soapbox**
 
of course! its a part of childhood. they can find out on their own, just like everyone else.

yall are gonna be some f#$%ed up parents, when your kid sees all the other kids getting presents and in the holiday spirit during christmas , and yourkid's getting nothing, your kid is gonna hate you for a while
christmas is one of the best times a kid has during his childhood
 
Everybody needs something like magical or whatever and #&$# to look upon.

So yea....I guess I will put up with it.

But after the age of like 7 or 8...he/she gotta be knowing it's me buying all the presents and stuff.
 
I wouldn't talk about preventing your children from being materialistic; you're on Niketalk. Anyway, if you told them that Santa Claus, Easter Bunny,Tooth Fair, etc. didn't exist, you'd crush so much wonder and imagination that make childhood so rich.
 
No. I'll only lie to my children for reasons I condone.

1st page and don't agree with a lot of one sided thinking going on in here. According to some of you parents who don't celebrate or acknowledge this!!%# (for w/e reason) are raising their children to have less of an imagination, stealing their innocence prematurely, and altogether messing them up andruining their lives. Oh and they themselves are **+#*@ up parents apparently.

Aint nothing wrong with letting kids know the difference between fiction and reality.
 
Yes..it keeps their innocence..at least for a little while.

All my kids are gonna grow up with great memories and full of happiness.

Great parenting is essential, something I didnt grow up with.
 
NO WAY IN HELL.
