humbug11 December, 2008 at 9:10 am #387846Awwww – that’s awful ! I reckon she’s in the wrong job. :(
What do you mean NO Father Christmas ???!!!!!! :-s :shock: :wink: :lol:
The magic of Christmas is with kids for such a short time , the last thing you want is a misery guts spoiling it.I am having similar trouble with my 10 yr old who has announced to my 7yr old that Father Christmas isn’t real. I have had to take him to one side & explain that it is totally unfair of him to spoil it for his sister (rotten lil git)!! :roll:
I have also told him not to be too disapointed when he gets no pressies – coz Father Christmas doesn’t leave presents to non believers! :shock: :wink: :twisted:I remember Christmas not ever being quite the same once my lil sister didn’t believe anymore.
11 December, 2008 at 10:15 am #387847Complete rubbish ….. Father Christmas IS real, everybody knows this to be true.
You want proof???? OK, you shall have proof.
My little daughter left a letter to said Father Christmas on the doorstep with her list of ‘ideal requests’ last Saturday evening. By Sunday morning it had gone. Clearly it had been collected overnight by Santa’s little helpers and is even now, winging its way to the North Pole.
I share her confidence that Father Christmas WILL deliver some if not all of her requests on Christmas day.
Proof, is ever proof was needed!

Not at all …. it was DEFINITELY Santa’s little helpers. It must have been ‘cos how else would he know what she wanted for Christmas???
11 December, 2008 at 10:44 am #387850Nothing like spoiling the magic of christmas for those little mites before they grow older and lose that precious innocence. There is nothing more magical than seeing a child’s eyes light up when they see Santa. Just as well it wasn’t a teacher that was there all the time, I can imagine the uproar. Personally I would have sourced some reindeer poo and dumped it on her desk and said, “Now you tell me Santa isn’t real” 8)

11 December, 2008 at 11:08 am #387852Quite right Cherry.
My little girl KNOWS that Santa is real. Why??? Because last Christmas she woke up “in the middle of the night” and she told me that she heard the bells on his sleigh tinkling as he passed by outside the house.
Sure enough, the next morning (Christmas Day) there before her eyes were the presents that Santa had left the night before.
Not only that, but he also had time to take a large bite out of the mince pie she left for him on Christmas Eve AND finishe off his glass of sherry. (Harvey’s Bristol Cream in case you were wondering).
So Miss Miseryguts teacher ….. THERE is your proof that Father Christmas really exists and really does make children’s dreams come true.
11 December, 2008 at 11:16 am #387853thats what happens when ya give Santa the good sherry :shock:
11 December, 2008 at 4:51 pm #387854Father Christmas (or Santa Claus) is a job description. A portly man who dresses up in a Santa outfit IS a Father Christmas. If another similar man dresses in a similar outfit and sits goes to another childrens’ party, he is also a Father Christmas. It’s just like being a traffic warden or a vicar or a soldier.
But children need to learn early that there’s no mythical Santa who flies around in a sleigh pulled by reindeer and squeezes down chimneys to leave presents. Then a few years later they will be prepared for the realisation that there’s no God either.
