Today, my son told me the Christmas letter he wrote to Santa was a joke and he didn't want the stuff he asked for. I already bought everything. FML

You should return it and get him coal instead. ;) Serves him right for misleading Santa!

"Joke's on you, son! Santa's not real!" For real, though, you could always just donate it to charity.

Well OP you're the best mom/dad ever. I would just donate the stuff you bought for your son to charity and give him nothing. FYL

Give them anyway, to teach him not to lie. And the day after, give him one gift he really wants if he shows that he's sorry :)

letters to Santa are meant to be written much, MUCH closer to Christmas so it's a ydi.

This fml was posted early December, and Christmas lists, where I'm from at least, were written by then to give the "elves" time to make it.

Sounds to me like the ungrateful little asshole needs to get what he asked for in that letter

Return the items but keep the empty boxes and wrap them. And inside, write, "Nobody fools Santa. Nobody." and record his face. He will believe, forever.

Thats suboptimal. Letter to santa are there so that the parents have a easy way to know what to get their kids. Its 2 weeks before christmas when to write that letter when not now? A day or two before christmas you cant really react to the kids wishes and it will allways get something else but not really what it whished for. If OPs kid were mine and would belive in santa(it wouldnt because i wont tell that to my kids) i would just give it the gifts and tell it that santa doesnt change wishlists after theyre send and next tim it shouldnt send a fake letter and think about its whishes.

I like the way you refer to this child as "it".

I wasnt really referring to Ops Son, in that case using He is obvious. But rather to a Hypothetical child with unknown gender because i tried to generalize what i was saying. So he/she feels wrong. They is more fitting but actually plural. So it in a sense of "a child" was actually the most fitting. Im aware that it is kinda rude talking about kids using it to refer to them. But im not a native englisch speaker and in my language the equivalent of it is perfectly fine to use when referring to an unspecified child.

Teach him a lesson about lying and or misrepresenting himself and explain Santa is too busy preparing and delivering gifts to ALL the children of the world and he delivered exactly what he was asked for. Use this as a teaching moment to show gratitude. Then take him to a shelter and show him how many children are less fortunate than he is and have him donate one or two of the toys "he doesn't really want" anyway!!!

You should give it to him anyway. It'll show him not to play around like that. Or use your receipts and return them.

Maybe he lied so he could act cool or something like that.
