Help this guy understand why people tell their kids about Santa and how their kids believe them?
[ul]
[li]Why let a imaginary guy claim credit for your presents?[/li][li]Who do kids believe the mall santas to be? The real North Pole Santa? Can’t they see he’s fake?[/li][li]What exactly do the mall santas do? Just sit there and let kids tell them what they want for Christmas? They don’t give the kids anything, do they?[/li][li]How do parents know what their kids want, if they’re telling the mall santa/writing cards?[/li][li]The biggest problem I have believing is - how can kids think their presents are made by elves at the North Pole? They aren’t asking for wooden trains anymore. iPads, Xboxes and other presents can’t be made without specialized equipment. I’ve seen “iPads” made by companies other than Apple, and I wouldn’t want one.[/li][/ul]
Or do 8 year olds believe everything?
