I gave a no comment reply.... These young boys certainly grow up too fast nowadays!! When my daughter was 8 years old (6 years ago she'd defi of accepted my story) Just waiting to see what happens next time!!
I KNOW - actually I gave Gray the option of Father Christmas putting her sack down him self or did she want him to leave it with me... and every time she want's me to bring it into her room...we tell them about strangers and then we allow "strangers" (ie me or dad) into her room.. No wonder shes freaking out...
Good god this is a hard one!! It must be so hard to blatently lie to your child about something like that (after all it is lieing, excuse spellin). To leave them in utter suspence no knowing whether to trust you or not!! On the other hand, as far as im concerened believing in all the airy fairy stuff and especially father christmas WAS what being a child is all about!! I was 13 when i went up to my mum and said 'Mum please now tell me, is there such thing as father christmas'?? She told me the truth and i was gutted!! But i did have a good incling at that age and i did understand why we were told what we were told when we were kids!! I felt no reservations towards my parents whatsoever when i found out the truth!! The fun for me after that was to see my little sisters get all excited about father christmas visisting the house!! I helped my mum do out the house on xmas eve so as to make it look like santa had indeed arrived!! That was just as special to me at that time in my life as actually beleiving in father christmas myself!!
Funnily enough my 6 year old lost his first tooth last night but he actually lost it. He fell off the sofa, and am worried he id it then instead of swallowing it and I have been searching for it high and low cos I have no idea where it is. I popped the money under his pillow and am terrified he will come across this tooth and cover will be blown.
We went through this at christmas when, shock and horror, someone told him there was no Father CHristmas. I convinced him it was true but then I worried about him being the only geeky kid that believed him.
