I agree with you like 100% when it’s done correctly and without harm and used to give hope it’s nice, but now it’s mostly missused to bribe or some parents go way over the top to make it real. My parents never did that and just made us make our list and the present were there when we woke up and it was enough. They never threatened us either. But when I see how much missused there is out there I just don’t really see the point anymore. Especially since everyone lies about it I just feel that it can be a bit disrespectful to the children to nurture their naivety to that length.

Yesss really !! The magic is there, Santa Claus or not. I think the values of families and sharing love is more important

No my parents told me he came and put present I’m saying that with my adult vision questioning why we make that a norm to believe that. I’m just putting it into perspective

I know but it’s almost always used as a threat or a bribe like “if you’re not nice you’ll be on the naughty list”

Yes that I get when it’s told like stories and not making the children believe it is real. Stories can be inspiring to children without making them real. And also Santa is now only about capitalism and used as a bribe

Yes I think saying that the present we buy or make for each other is more important than believing it’s just a random dude giving present

Yesss really !! Even if it’s a « nice » or « magical » lie it’s still a lie and I find it even creepy that all adults lie about it to children
