Santa Claus was not a part of my childhood, Jesus was. My parents believed that telling me that God was the true reason behind me being able receive gifts, was better than any Santa Claus. Instead of Santa Claus, I looked forward to celebrating Jesus at Christmas (and every other day), someone who loves me and takes care of me whether or not I was "good" or "bad". And, seriously, no offense whatsoever, but why would you deliberately lie to a child about Santa Claus?
