Replying to Avatar Bourbonic Plague

I was about five when I convinced myself Santa was bullshit. I resented the people who kept telling me the lie too.

When my kids were young I refused to perpetuate the lie. I didn’t burst their bubble early, but when they started really pushing I didn’t defend the lie. They took it very hard.

I wonder how my life would have been different if the much more defensible position of the story of Saint Nicholas had been the focus and background of the gift giving tradition rather than the magic elves and reindeer. 🤔

Told my kids Santa wasn’t real like everyone else is real but an Ideal that is within everyone stronger in parents so in a sense Santa is real!!
