I don't remember ever believing he was real.

I was a horribly practical, logical child.

I'll ask my mum next time I speak to her if I ever believed in santa. She'll probably remember.

Junior School. I was 8. The rest of the class ripped the piss out of me when I told them what Santa had brought me. I hated my parents that day.

I told my daughter the truth when she was four, but not until she had first asked the question.

On a related matter: My son, he's six, lost a tooth the other week. I told him the tooth fairy would come and take it away, he looked at me cynically and said it didn't exist. I explained the tooth fairy left money for the tooth, "oh that tooth fairy!" he said, "I believe in that one"

When my dad came to the back door dressed as santa and I noticed he had his work boots on... I said "daddy why you dressed as Santa"... I just knew at that point santa did not exsist...

I'd be more worried about your 9 year old being on a swingers forum than finding out santa's not real ..

I was 51 and 3/4 when I read a post on FAB purporting that Santa isn't real.

Good job I know Fabio was only kidding, just like my Dad was when I was 7 and 3/4 and I asked him if Father Christmas was real and he told me he wasn't. My Mum went mad at my Dad and I'm still convinced thats why they seperated 3 years later and it had nothing to do with my Dad's mistress.

Oh Fabio what have you unleashed, woe is me....

If he isn't real what are all the people on here with Santas Little (insert helper title here) doing? Is it a make-work scheme to massage the unemployment stats?

The boss joked about whether I am ready for Santa to come down the chimney to deliver his present, and I replied I don't have a chimney, and got everyone in the canteen to chuckle.

Another example of my humour bypass!

I was 6 and it was the headmaster of my primary school who told me while telling me.

He said I wouldn't get any presents, I said Santa wouldn't forget me so he told me he wasn't real and it was my parents who bought them.

Oh did he fuck up!!!! My mam tore shreds off him the next day

Defining moment for me..

Sitting on back door step aged 8. Neighbour joined me - he was 13. He dropped a bomb and told me santa was not real. It actually winded me, as if someone had smacked me hard in the chest.

An evil evil neighbour, and i never forgave him for it!

Santa Claus - not real....I don't believe that!Eight-year-old Virginia O'Hanlon wrote a letter to the editor of New York's Sun, and the quick response was printed as an unsigned editorial Sept. 21, 1897. The work of veteran newsman Francis Pharcellus Church has since become history's most reprinted newspaper editorial, appearing in part or whole in dozens of languages in books, movies, and other editorials, and on posters and stamps.

"DEAR EDITOR: I am 8 years old.

"Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus.

"Papa says, 'If you see it in THE SUN it's so.'

"Please tell me the truth; is there a Santa Claus?

"VIRGINIA O'HANLON.

"115 WEST NINETY-FIFTH STREET."

VIRGINIA, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.

Yes, VIRGINIA, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be as dreary as if there were no VIRGINIAS. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.

You may tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, VIRGINIA, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.

No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

I remember believing and I remember not believing,The moment I realised he was'nt real can't have been traumatic as I don't recall it at all
