lol @ Gabrielle's story. I believed in Santa when I was little. I stopped when I woke up early one night and saw my mom wrapping presents and putting them under the tree.
I believed in santa till I was like 7/8, and remember thinking my cousin, only a few months younger, was so stupid when she still believed and I didn't lol.
My parents tried to sell me and my siblings into Santa. I remember being young and not really caring about it lol. It just depends on the kid.
I think kids who believe in Santa grow out of it just fine or have a mini tantrum and forget about it. If it becomes some weird psychological scarring then that kid has bigger problems.
I was around 8 when I realized "Santa's" handwriting matched my moms on the presents under the tree, it wasn't too heartbreaking though lol I think believing in Santa is fun, just like the Easter bunny. I feel like most kids figure it out for themselves as they get older anyway so why ruin the fun early on?
kinda same, I think I was 9/10 and it was my grandma's handwriting. I don't remember being upset by it though, just like eh whatever I'm still getting presents so /shrug.
