  What should you do if your kid(s) ask if Santa is real...  Tell them the truth. Telling the truth should be important to everyone, now obviously telling a lie to protect someone is different but you shouldn't go around telling lies about anything and everything. If your kid believes in Santa there isn't necessarily anything wrong with that, it's kind of normal for kids to believe in fairy tales, but when they ask you you should just tell them the truth. It would be pretty silly to just keep telling them Santa is real when they are older. It won't hurt them to know the truth, and knowing the truth doesn't have to take away any of the magic from Christmas. You can still have fun without believing in Santa.  The most important thing about the holidays should be spending time with people you love and care about and people who love you and care about you.  Happy Holidays!!
