School tells kids there is no Santa

Part of the magic of Christmas (other than Jesus birthday) is watching the wonder in kids eyes. I love seeing little kids watch the lights and things when it's all new to them. I supposed that offends someone too. [/b][/color]

Speaking of that. We had the sweetest little boy come into our store with his mom yesterday. He was probably a little over 2 years old. He had just woken up from a nap and was very tired and was being bashful and clingy to his mother. My boss said something about Santa and the kid snapped right out of it. He got a HUGE smile on his face and just started talking like crazy and he was so excited to leave cookies and milk out for Santa. He was a very sweet boy and it was so nice to see that innocence and to see his face light up like a Christmas tree at the mention of Santa's name. how could anything that brings so much joy be so wrong?

If they told that to my kid, I would personally go to that school and start playing bowling with whoever said that and told people to say that.



I can't wait to bring kids into the world and introduce them to Santa and our (fiancee and I) traditions for the holidays!

My 4 year old sister's preschool teacher told her Santa was alive a long time ago but now he's dead. She was really crying and we had to tell her her teacher was kidding for her to get over it. I think it's horrible to tell kids he's not real.

I would pull my kid from the school. Kids are already losing the spirit of Christmas teachers don't need to enforce it!!!!!

Grr it's totally uncalled for!

In 1st grade I remember my teacher telling my class that we had no santa claus and that Christmas was all about Baby Jesus. Also we had to pray to God that we would understand Christmas was about the birth of Jesus and not about gifts. I did go to a private school at the time too.

My mom went in there and chewed the principal out for what that teacher did.

Well, she was partially right in that it's about the birth of Jesus but way out of line telling the kids there is no Santa. It was not her place to tell the kids anything really. She should just have told them to ask their parents.

What do you mean Santa isn't real??
He left me a gift under the tree. he got me 30 boxed of KD

Hehehe I foundout when I was about 7-8ish. I was just too smart & tricked my dad. I said. Dad how much did the 10g fish tank cost that I got for xmas way back? because I want to buy a nother one.. Dad said about 50.00 & I said HA!! Thought Santa brought that.. My dad said you little bugger you, you got me. He said The whole Santa thing is to make the day special & fun for kids. He asked me not to tell my sister as it wouldn't be fair to her. I never did tell her, or anyone else.

Here I am at 24 & still getting a gift from Santa His gift is the big special Gift lol & yes he really did give me 30 boxes of KD this year
