Should a child know that Santa Claus is a good fairy tale, and that parents put gifts under the Christmas tree? How will the truth about a good wizard affect him? 5 reasons that parents share convince them to tell the child faster the truth.
Saving your family budget
When thinking about a gift, often in a letter the children ask for what they want according to the principle “Mom will not buy because she does not have enough money, and Santa Claus will definitely give - he is kind and can do anything.” However, “mother will not buy” not because she is not so kind as Santa Claus, but because the desires of children often exceed the financial capabilities of the family.
Every New Year to explain that the wizard is only one, and there are many children, and therefore it is not possible to buy expensive gifts for everyone, is quite difficult.
Recently, a ten-year-old girl who has made a list for Santa has been discussed on the Web. It seems that the poor old man will have to work tirelessly: the young lady had 26 items on the list, including iPhone 11, AirPods, MacBook Air earphones, gemstone earrings, Chanel perfume, a lively rabbit, clothes for him and 4 thousand dollars, believe for yourself.
Actually, children quite often order according to the principle "parents don’t have much money, but Cause of the Frost has a lot." And to explain that the wizard forgot the wallet at home, and therefore instead of the dollhouse will bring the doll service, is quite difficult.
Having explained to the child the truth that there is no good Grandfather, he quickly gets used to reality, and parents can now give gifts in accordance with their budget.
Trust relationship with a child
Is it worth the kid from childhood to know that Santa Claus is a disguised teacher, the question is ambiguous. It is clear that the child must believe the parents. Having once learned the truth that the wizard’s voice does not accidentally resemble the voice of the pope, the child may lose confidence in the words of adults. It is worth explaining that Santa Claus is a good and kind fairy tale, and gifts will continue to appear on the night under the New Year tree, but that mom and dad leave them.
Whether children need unconditional faith in Santa Claus is a moot point. But to know that dad and mom always tell the truth is necessary.
Lack of ridicule
It happens that children learn the truth from peers or older brothers and sisters. And the day when a child accidentally finds out that there is no Grandfather, and there are only cunning adults who fool him, it can become tragic for him. It all starts with the phrase: “Do you really believe that? And in fireflies too? And in the Tooth Fairy? ”, And ends with the fact that the child does not believe in a fairy tale or in himself, but he is sure that adults are evil deceivers.
Faith in a good holiday
If a child learns that a good wizard is a fiction, this does not mean that he does not need to be loved. On the contrary, parents can continue to ask the child to write letters to Grandfather, and give gifts in response to them. Then the child will wait for the New Year tales, and not the long-awaited opportunity to "catch" Santa Claus, while he leaves gifts.
The feeling of adulthood due to the knowledge of the "secret"
Children adore believing that they are already very large. When a child learns a secret about Santa Claus, he feels older than others because he knows the truth that other children are not told. While other naive guys are waiting for the wizard, he is an adult and experienced, keeps a big secret.
