We are a family that didn't do Santa Claus with our kids. We wanted a faith-based Christmas that focused on the Holy Family. We had issues with the in-laws who insisted on signing gift tags from Santa Claus. My parents thought we were crazy but went along with our wishes.

We didn't want our kids' faith in the existence of God to be shaken once the myth of Santa, et al was revealed. After all, if we perpetuated the Easter Bunny year after year, how is a child to discern that we weren't lying about God?
