[quote=Anonymous]Last year my then 7 year old begged me, distraught, to tell him straight up, about the tooth fairy. This was after Christmas. He was really questioning that fairy. So I told him the fairy was really me. And then he wails and says "and Santa is just a myth, too!" That was a sad night. After thinking about it a bit, my husband and I agreed to make a sort of ceremony for my son, welcoming him into "The Santa Conspiracy," the group of people in the know who are "Santa" to other people and keep the spirit of Santa alive. That made him feel good, and he is very cheerfully anticipating Christmas this year, and is upholding the Santa conspiracy with his little cousin and not ruining Elf on the Shelf for friends who still believe. And the thing about our Santa Conspiracy is it allows him to enter into the whole shebang of Santa fantasy in all its glory while knowing it is all play. Its actually very sweet, and the whole family is enjoying it this year.[/quote]
