Today, I brought my 6-year-old to the mall to sit on Santa's lap. She told him what she wanted and smiled for the picture. When the lady told her that her turn was over, she began throwing a fit, pulling off Santa's beard in the process. This caused all the kids in line to begin sobbing. FML

I would be sobbing too if a kid had enough strength to rip every one of Santa's hairs out of their follicles. Imagine the pain! . . .That IS what happened, right?

I never understood the draw of taking your young children to sit on a stranger's lap. In what other situation would this be ok?

I hope she knows Santa will not be visiting this year

If your kid has some doubts now, there's an amazing scene in Parenthood to reinvigorate her spirit :)

I've never told my kids that Santa (or any of the others) are real. WTF is the point in lying to your children about it? The holiday he's associated with is BS anyway.

Oh, well in that case I apologize, Noor. Here are some candy canes as a peace offering. *throws candy canes at Noor's face*

Nice try 20, but you're not going to get off on a religious debate today. Piss off.

Personally, I'm glad I got to grow up with this stuff to believe in. What a dull childhood it would have been to think that magic isn't real. I mean, of course I grew up knowing better, but the mystery of Santa, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy, etc. when I was a child was awesome.

Tell her that Santa has the mange this year and had to use a fake beard until his grows back. Which should be in time for his Christmas Eve visit to her house.

I doubt she knows what the mange is, but it's a good try...lmao.

Good point. Hmm. Maybe OP should try cooties instead of mange. Yeah, that's better.

if you had control over your kid that wouldn't happen, so yeah

You can't control a child every second. Tantrums do happen, and this idiotic comment pretty much proves you don't have children. My child acts out, and just because he gets a swat on the butt doesn't mean he's not going to do it again some other time.

Calm down, guys. 20 is actually the Grinch.
