Not necessarily. I was raised in a devoutly Christian home, and was told from earliest childhood that Santa Claus didn't exist, nor did the Easter Bunny. I never believed in Santa, because I was constantly instructed not to.

My parents were fundamental Christians, and taught me from a preschooler that Santa Claus and the Easter bunny were myths. So, no it's not true in every case.

In México Santa wasn't mainstreamed in the central and rural parts until well after the 1980's, and the Easter Bunny isn't mainstream quite yet. But I believe your statement is true in the U. S.

I have been a christian all my life and I never believed in either. They kind of go against what the true celebration is about. Easter is suppose to be the day Christ was ressurected, it has nothing to do with bunnie and eggs and Christmas is suppose to be the day Christ was born not about a fat guy briniging gifts. Sorry I dont know if any of that helped or not. But you should believe what you want!! God bless you!!

Possibly, if they are seclued from secular things like school, tv, internet. But if they're out in the open, with other kids then no. Kids talk in school, when one finds out the easter bunny isn't real...or sees their dad as Santa, then everyoen at school will know.

Most likely this stems from being brought up in such a way that they are more sheltered from the worlds views more so than a child from a non christian home.

Mine never did. They were told the Truth early on...And I am thankful that I did, because now that they are adults, they have shared with me that they were Glad I had been Honest with them, that they knew they could Always Trust me...

Why are you bashing Christianity? I'm always curious about the people that ask these types of questions.

Nope. I never believed in either and neither did my children. Did I burst your little generalizing bubble?

I am not aware of any studies on the subject but it would not surprise me.
