How old were you when you found out St. Nick wasn't real??

I was 7 and I caught my Dad wrapping my present in the kitchen and he then had to explain to me "the concept of Santa" as he called it.

I bring it up cuz my niece (6yrs) asked me the other day and I didn't really know what to say to her, I felt really bad for not being able to explain it to her.

 

WHAT do you mean St. Nick isn't real!!!!



SERIOUSLY THOUGH,
and the answer for your neice is YES....he is real.....and if not in a physical sence......then in a sence of the spirit of the season.....

 

I told her to go ask her Mom....oops.....

 

WHAT are you trying to sya by and if not in a physical sense?? huh?? I'll take all of ya down if you say santa isn't real....

then you will all get coal and cry..

 

I stopped believing in Santa when he never got me what I really wanted. I was like 6,7,or 8. Plus my parents just straight out and told me he wasn't real without a care. They told me that the real meaning of Christmas isn't about Santa, but the birth of Jesus.

 

I was 8 and a friend who was older than me told me because I was going to ask santa for a playboy magazine lol .

 

I was 7 or 8. Every year for Christmas, all I wanted was a go-cart. I was wondering why santa would never get me one, and I guess it was getting on my parents nerves. haha.

 

amen brotha!

 

Right on, Jesus is the reason for the season!

 

I was 5, and my older brother (10 at the time) told me... for some reason I wasn't upset or anything. I remember having to keep my mouth shut about santa not being real in school, cause most still thought he was real. That went on for years... If I was mean when I was a little kid, I could have ruined christmas for a lot of other kids!

 

Me too. I always asked for a go-kart, but never got it.

 

lol i think my parents are still in denile (sp) i still find presents under the tree from santa lol

 

Well, sad to say but I never got to beleive in Santa. By the time I was able to understand the concept, my dad and uncle told me he wasn't real. Why?, may you ask. Well I found out later it was because my dad didn't like the idea that someone else was getting the credit for his son's(me) happiness. So I never got to beleive in him. But I turned out just fine, really, I swear.

 

I never believed in santa myself...haha...


I'd be like...If my parents can't get me what i wanted...why the F**K would some next person get it for me (well I wouldn't say F**K)

I dunno...I just never believed in him...wait for maybe one year i did...I remember I wrote him a list. haha but that was it.

On Christmas day...I would be looking forward to presentsa from parents..aunts uncles...etc....but never santa.

I never ruined it for anyone tho.... dunno y....If i look back on it...I thought i would ruin it....but i never did

 

Amen. He is risen.
