[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are not religious but why spoil the fun for the kids? We just played along. When DD got excited over Santa, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, imaginary friends, etc., we got excited too! When DD was older, she found out that Santa was not real. We simply told her that it's just one way of telling the kids to be good and have fun. Later, she asked why we do not go to church or believe in God. We told her that God is like Santa. It is real if you believe and we have to respect their views. People have different ways to express joyfulness. Some do it through church or certain times during the year. [/quote] But you’re lying by telling her those things, about santa and religion. Better to tell a child the truth than risk it leading to interest in falsehoods and lies.[/quote]
