Questions

As the title asks - How did your kids finally find out about the truth about how Santa works and what age were they when they found out?

Did they find out on their own? Others tell them like their classmates or family members? Or with today’s technology - indoor cameras - did they catch Santa without the infamous red and white hat coat and pants?

I ask because…. I blew it! I’ve never felt so bad in my life! I fell asleep and then my son woke me up with the most disappointed face ever …. but he wasn’t crying. But I completely broke down because I failed him. 💔💔💔😢😢😢 I failed him as a father. I sent him to the bathroom and then the Santa haul was brought out. When he came out he saw it all and realized. But he thanked me all the same. Even though he now knows, he still wants to continue Santa. I don’t blame him one bit. I also told him the truth about the Easter bunny and why the tooth fairy stopped coming. (Except for 3-4 baby teeth he accidentally swallowed, I kept every tooth mainly because of stem cells, he might need them in future)

And I know you’re going to say he’s old enough to know - he’s 13. But unless he’s playing me, he really believed.

I’ve never felt worse in my life. Merry Christmas…not in my case or his. 💔💔💔😢😢
