Do you believe in Santa Claus?

I know its a little early for this but...it's out of curiosity. XD

So, do you? I don't really but in a way I do because I tend to be around little kids or kids with disabilities, that still believe in him. XD So its fun to keep them believing because its not fun when they find out he doesnt exist. :[

To me, I think there is a Santa Claus because if you think about the kids that have nothing...like in Africa or in those poor countries they obviously need something to believe in.

Sorry, I watch the Polar Express too much so I guess I still believe in him even though my parents tell me isn't real. I just can't help it. ;~;

Who is this "Santa"?

:O


But, you know, if he was real there'd be a big paedophile scandal. o_o
Quite a funny thought, actually.

What do you mean he isnt real? :'(

Joke, I dont believe in him but its fun for kids.

No, i don't.
and i wouldn't lie in front of kids who believed in him, because the truth is better than believing in something that doesn't exist. false hope is the last thing we need.

I believe that Santa is a symbol for generosity and gift-giving around Christmas, so yeah, he exists to me... not in a physical form, however.

No, I stopped believing in Santa Claus in the 4th grade.

However, he is a symbol of giving.

who's santa? is he that fat guy who steals my cookies christmas night? I much prefer Hoteiosho over that guy, since he roams Japan and not where I'm at.
no I don't believe in Santa, or at least don't want to believe in him.

*hangs sign on wall, "shhh, it's Santa hunting season", and starts to clean last years christmas present*

Well I believe in him. I am not a little kid either. There is magic in this world and cold-hearted people don't see it. It really annoys me when someone says he is not real because he or she can't see the magic put into it. I really do not want to offend any of you its just if you want me to answer it with my mind this is it.

I was kinda bummed about it when my mum let out that he didn't exist.
It was when I was twelve, so I'd obviously already figured out, but it was fun putting stuff out at chrismas for him, and it generally gave the holiday a nice feel.

I prefered it when I wasn't told. :/

No. I simply don't think he exists. I never believed in Santa when I was little, and I suppose I won't for the rest of my life. ;=;

I stopped believing in that fat,old gyu since i was about 6-7
I knew he was fake when i first her his name

I was never told he didn't exist. I figured it out on my own. The wrappers in my mom's big fat dark locker were the same as the Christmas wrappers last year.

I still believe that Coca-Cola brings magic, though XD.

I figured out he wasn't real when I found the presents in my parents' closet that "Santa Claus" was supposed to be bringing on Christmas Eve. =/

I was really upset but I got over it.

I've never believed in him, to be honest. When I was two, my brother told me he didn't exist, not that my parents tried to make me believe he did anyway XD;

So you would tell a five year old child in the process of putting cookies out on Christmas Eve that Santa Claus was a big fat lie?

Many people would rather believe in Santa Claus and be happy than know he's not real and be... well, not exactly miserable, but you know what I mean.

Besides, by the time children are twelve or thirteen, I'm sure they've already figured out he isn't real, and if they haven't, then they'd probably be able to handle a little disappointment like that.

Woa... no need to be mean, man.


Anyway, I don't believe in him anymore, but I do like to pretend he's real around little kids. It's fun watching them get excited for his arrival on Christmas Eve.

I've never believed in him. It's impossible to do what he does every December, even with reindeer.

I do act like he's real around little kids that believe in him. Don't want to bum them out.

No, but it is annoying that my mom still won't say flat out that Santa Claus doesn't exist. She just kind of dodges the question and then laughs. ;_;

Yes and i also think that every night someone magically comes in every night and stills a penny from my penny case!
Of course not silly head. But if he were real then i wouldnt be here bored on the internet. I would acually had left my parnets in search of dragons!(sarcasm that last bit)

I have actually never understood how it's fun to imagine a fat old man gives you a stocking instead of your parents. An imaginary person is taking the credit! I don't get it!
