please make sure to tell your kids that, even though Santa is not real, the North Pole is a real place.
 
Actually, you got that backwards. Santa is real, you can see him in any mall. The North Pole is a concept and tends to wander around quite a bit.
 
He can't get to every house on the planet between midnight and 4am Christmas day??

Might wanna tell them the gifts are from hard working parents, family, and freinds and not a fairy tale, bearded man on flying horses.

Imagination and faith are what made America great. Not to mention, the horribly drab grey world without them. You are under no compulsion when you want to give gifts and holiday cheer. Next, you'll be telling us there's no Easter Bunny or, Great Pumpkin!

From the article:
He had been the recipient of several "Christmas miracles." One was the "coolest space Lego out there," the working monorail, which he was convinced was too expensive for his parents to give him.

My brother and I also got that Lego Futron Space Monorail set as kids. Poor, single mom actually found a way to afford it while raising twins by herself. Loved it.

We actually knew we were getting it when a brown cardboard box appeared in the closet. It had a 4-digit number on the box, which we compared to items in the Lego catalog.

I'd never tell my kids there's no Santa. Santa stops existing when they say he doesn't exist. Santa is the last bit of magic on this shitty planet, and you have to be a real fuckhole to deprive your kids of that.

Exactly, Santa is just harmless fun for the little ones. I remember as a little kid looking out the window for Santa's slay. It was magical and as a parent and grand parent I encourage the little ones to believe.

They grow out of it soon enough.

No, I'd rather tell my kids the truth from the jump so they won't even have to be worried about believing in Santa or this Christmans falsehood crap.

I'm depriving my kids of lies and falsehood. Good enough for me. You're a crappy parent if you need your kids to believe in some bearded sky-fairy and not you.

I guess you read biology textbooks to your kids instead of Kipling, since the latter is scientifically inaccurate :^S
