A told a five year old there is no Santa Clause.
Daddy The belief in Santa Clause to me is a bit idiotic and below I will explain why.
Allow me to start off by saying that Christmas time was something that my mother & father enjoyed to do for their children.
My father used to get a kick out of my sister and I opening our gifts while he recorded every moment.
One year he went as far as to hide all of my toys because I had been bad.
The man recorded over an hour of me crying, pouting, finding toys and finally rejoicing.
During the entire time he is laughing at me with a beer in his hand.
With that said I certainly appreciate what my folks did for me however I couldn’t tell Kaily what is essentially a lie.
Kaily is a much smarter child than I was and she has already picked up skills that it took me an entire lifetime to figure out.
Not only that but she always expects honesty because that is what she is going to give you in return.
Also the fact that kids WORSHIP Santa Clause which is a bit disturbing.
The idea of my daughter worshipping an over weight white guy, with a beard to cover his face, a ski mask and enjoys kids sitting on his lap while taking pictures is a bit nerve wrecking.
I’ve worked too hard to give credit to someone that MIGHT be on Date Line with Chris Hansen.
If you’ve read this far then you probably want to know what she said and how it went down.
That is a story for tomorrow.
