You know it's bad when imaginary beings are contributing to class warfare.Thoughts?
In all seriousness though, this is a tough subject. I'm an atheist, but I'm not entirely opposed to telling my (hypothetical) children about Santa. It's harmless enough, but I understand the secular perspective on this. It's just tough when you know you're gonna be introducing them into a world where it's gonna be thrown in their face constantly, and little kids aren't exactly known for keeping their mouths shut. I would keep the myth alive just to avoid the angry phone calls and hostile interactions with teachers and other parents.
This is one of those instances where I'm alright with being strong-armed by society. Not the hill I wanna die on.
