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?

wtf. your town can't find a Santa with a real beard?

YDI for not teaching your daughter better manners! No reason for her to act like that.

I don't blame her. I was always terrified of Santa.

Here's one kid who's getting coal in her stocking.

Sounds like you should learn what a spanking is. And some discipline.

well kids needed to learn the truth eventually

well, you ARE the one raising her, right? YDI. if i ever did anything like that, my mom would spank my soul out. and since she taught me good manners at a young age, i honestly can not think of ONE public tantrum after i was about 4. she's always very proud to tell people how polite i was as a child, with pleases, thank yous, never speaking when not supposed to and always listening. especially in public. i mean, yeah, kids will be kids, and they'll still cry when you tell them no, but a tantrum like the one OP described seems like lack of discipline.

Give her coal for Christmas and give her a letter from Santa explaining why good boys and girls don't rip out Santa's beard.
