[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fudge books are old. I think back when she wrote it, back when I was kid (I’m 37), kids didn’t believe in Santa for as long as they do now. Parents weren’t so involved and micromanaging and I think kids did spill the beans for others sooner. [/quote] I agree. Parents were not nearly as invested in their kids believing in Santa for as long as possible back then (I'm in my 40s). By late elementary, most kids had heard from somewhere that Santa wasn't real. I still got a gift from Santa, but it was a little more like playing along with a game. I didn't believe Santa was real, but I didn't not-believe, either--it was fun to play along. I doubt that parents then would have freaked out because a fifth-grader read a book where one character said that Santa wasn't real. [/quote]
