I was 8.

I was living in Junction City, Ks. and I got up and saw my parents wrapping and placing gifts under the tree.

I don't remember myself but when the kids would ask, our patent answer was he won't bring you a present ever again if you don't believe in him.

I don't remember them ever asking twice.

3rd grade. Other kids in class spilled the beans.
My son is in 2nd grade and the 3rd graders are already screwing it up for us.

I was about 5, my next door neighbor was some kind of 7th day adventist or something and they didn't do santa claus, so he told me. I was already suspicious~

I was 8. As we were trying to fall asleep on Christmas Eve, my 12-year-old uncle asked me if I wanted to see Santa Claus. I said sure. So we crawled out of the bedroom to the second-floor hallway that overlooked the foyer down below. I saw my parents and grandparents laughing and carrying presents into the living room where the tree was.

I briefly cried at the loss of innocence, but then quickly got over it.

4th grade. I had suspicions way before that but my mom swore to me I was wrong so I trusted her. I guess that year she forgot to put one of my presents under the tree, and for some reason decided to put it by the front door and tell me that "Santa forgot to leave one of my gifts under the tree and to look outside". Little did she know I saw her put the present there from my bedroom window. I was so pissed off that she lied to me all those years and wouldn't talk to her for several days.

scott free · 12-24-2012, 05:09 PM

I think it was age seven... i'd been wanting this big, over a foot tall Chewbacca action figure all year, so one night mom takes me shopping but is VERY secretive about some of it, that set off defcon alarm bells.

So when we get home, as she is taking bags into the house, i sneek a peek at one rather full bag still in the car... AND THERE HE WAS HALLELUJAH!

A few days later, it was under the tree... from Santa Claus.

*wags finger* you cant fool me, bitch!
