To tell kids that Santa, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth fairly (plus all other fairies) are not real.

I say 3.

Unless they’re advanced for their age then 2.

I personally feel it's much more fun to mess with their minds. Say you have a surprise for their third birthday and tell them immediately before they blow out the candles. Then wait a week to say you were only joking it after a short pause say "or was I ?"

I’d say as soon as they can speak. Tell them that Santa isn’t real, bunnies don’t lay eggs, the dog died and didn’t go to a farm and their uncle isn’t cool, he’s an alcoholic.

Also, if a stranger told your child in, say Asda, Morrisons, Tesco’s or any other supermarket on the run up to Christmas that he’s not real, would that be ok?

Till they don't believe themselves , who are you to spoil it for them ? With the TV and phones and internet now it's very difficult to keep things in order but they're not fools and will find out themselves and when that time comes when they ask you, have a proper discussion with them and say you kept it going cause it's a parents thing to do , don't overcomplicate things , they will understand.

I agree. The joy and memories we’ve had over the years are magical. I’ll never understand how people could deprive their kids of that. But that’s the world we live in today. Mustn’t bring them up to “lie”

. Unfortunately that’s the parents’ choice though not the children’s.

They usually work it out themselves, when they catch you putting the cash under the pillow, or presents under the tree.

Sometimes a horrible adult tells them, just to be a cunt; sometimes, a friend says it and they ask you if it's true with that look of "Don't lie to me now" in their eyes.

Sometimes, you have to tell them in the Summer before they go to Secondary school, because they would be embarrassed by other children if they mentioned Father Christmas and the Tooth Fairy.

They are well rounded adults who are winning at life so not believing in the Easter bunny has no long term effects

Where did anyone say kids have to believe in those concepts to have a good childhood? We were asked when we told our kids they didn't exist. It doesn't need to turn into an ethical discussion whether doing elf on the shelf makes me a bad parent or not.

I didn't jump on you - my language was calm and polite. Yes I believe your language and Steve's implies that other parents choices aren't good. It shouldn't need to be a judgement - on either side. It's just a parenting choice. Both have merits.

"I never told my kids shit like that in the first place

My eldest got the concept from others....I never encouraged or discouraged it

The implication is literally up the thread. "

Yes I can see that now. Not from me. There's no need for anyone to judge other peoples choices in this area - is there? Parenting is tough enough. Calling Santa a creepy little fuck - really not necessary.

"Also, what the fuck do kids think the tooth fairy is and does?

A little flying fairy psychopath collecting human teeth.

To what end?

Creepy little fuck.

Yup, and you can't talk to strangers yet a guy in a red and white suit in December is OK! Hell, he's even allowed in bedrooms

You've chosen not to encourage it with your kids. Your choice. No need to suggest that other parents' choices are wrong.

I am adding my opinion into a thread. Absolutely no need to jump on me like that

"No need to suggest that other parents choices are wrong" I wouldn't say I did jump on you. I also have an opinion.

I never said that though. Read my posts again!

Yes you are but I haven't jumped on you for your opinion have I! So please allow me the same courtesy

Then that's your perception, which is on you not me, I was giving my opinion.

That was Jon Bon Jovi calling the tooth fairy a creepy little fuck for stealing teeth. Read before you jump.

Apologies to Steve. And Santa. You agreed with that judging language though.

She collects teeth. If I did that I’m sure I’d be in a maximum security prison.

No but you had a pop at me for commenting. Why not have a pop at them for posting it if it offends you.

Kiiiiiiiids kids kids.

Obviously I’m NOT telling my kids that Santa, the psycho fairly and the giant man bunny who shits chocolate eggs, aren’t real.

Mainly because I don’t have kids.

So I’m opting to tell other peoples kids instead, over tannoy systems, so I don’t have to go near the germy little fuckers, in all major supermarkets in December.

Thanks for helping me make this decision.

And stop lying to your kids!!

I said something similar to Steve - and Jon as above. Didn't have a pop as you describe it. I'm not offended. I don't think there's any need for anyone to be judgmental about this. Which is what I've said multiple times.
