I have been noticing alot of children asking questions about the existence of Santa Clause recently. The answers that they have been getting really tick me off! I don't care if a child is 7 or 14, Why do you feel it is necessary to crush their fantacy for them? In this day and age especially children grow up and face a dark world too quickly, there is no harm in allowing them to hold on to that small pieceof childhood magic for a little while longer! For those of you who take that away WHY? Do you get some satisfaction? Are you still bitter cause you did'nt get everything on your Christmas list?

There is a better way to go about things, as well should it not be up to the parents to break it gently to children?
If it was one of my children who was asking the question on here and getting these kinds of answers I would be furious! Are there any other people out there who feel the same?

I agree 100% kids hardly get to be kids anymore, and it really ticks me off. Nothing is kept sacred in this day and age and I think it's awful a 7 year old does not need to disillusioned.
People wonder why we have so much teen sex, violence, gangs drugs etc, it might just because all the magic is leaking out of our lives.
