[QUOTE="Red Dirt, post: 1645212, member: 18600"] I don't judge people who celebrate halloween, heck I used to long time ago. But there is [I]WAY[/I] too much satanism and devil stuff wrapped up in it for me to take part. And no, my parents did not tell me that santa existed. They said that they didn't want to tell me not to lie as a child, then have me find out that they had been "lying" to me for several years. Also didn't want me to have to throw out what they had taught me about santa, but still hang on to what they taught me about God. That would be confusing for a little kid. So they just told me what they believed to be the truth and didn't teach me any fantasies. Sure, it might not have been all that much fun for them, but at least I always trusted them. And my brother and I actually had more fun, cuz we could tell eachother that we were smarter than other kids at school because we knew the real truth about santa. :woohoo1: And my parents still stuffed our stockings and everything so we really didn't miss all that much of Christmas compared to other kids. If I ever have kids I think that I will follow my folks example. Yeah everyone thinks youre weird, and you do take a lot of flak, but in the long run I'd rather have my kids always trust what I tell them. ( Again, I'm not judging people who do. Most of my relatives do Santa and Halloween and everything and their kids seem fine :) ) [/QUOTE]
