Teacher tells kids Santa isn’t real

[AirVol]

Substitute teacher didn't stop at ruining Santa. No magical creatures were safe

This teachers name and address, phone number should be published. They should be harassed 24/7, right Dims?

Those kids should be grateful they have an adult in their lives that will be honest with them.

I laughed.

 

[Weezer]

Personally, I'd think Dems would love the myth of Santa. No one gives away more free stuff.

Lol good one.

 

[Mick]

And just like that, AirVol's reality was crushed.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, my 6 year old nephew doesn't believe in Santa because he's not in the bible. Yeah, my SIL is a bible thumping fruitcake.

Why not let kids be kids and enjoy childhood as long as possible . Kids don’t think like that when they are young unless parents or other adults teach them to . You can teach the Bible and have Santa until they are old enough to not believe in Santa . The world is waiting to set them “ right “ and destroy their dreams when they are older so why not let them be kids . That’s the problem I would have with this teacher if she was teaching my kids .

My SIL is also a teacher.

But I agree, what's the harm in letting them have some make-believe while their young. Life will kick them in the nuts soon enough. Especially if they're UT fans.

Is Telling Kids Santa Claus Is Real a Bad Idea?

Why It's OK for Kids to Believe in Santa Claus

I think that once a kid starts asking adults whether something is real or not, the adults have a duty to be honest. I think you do a disservice to anyone by telling them what they want to hear versus what they need to hear.

How many kids lives have been ruined by letting them believe in Santa or the Easter bunny ? There’s plenty of time for them to be grown ups , let them be kids as long as possible .

What do you mean Santa isn't real?

You're right, what could go wrong when teaching children to believe in magical beings who reward or punish them based on arbitrary standards of good or bad.

Raise your kids the way you want to. It's not for teachers or others to dispel fantasy in young kids.

Someone doesn’t get it.

Teacher must be a secret operative in the War on Christmas.

If he did, I'm sure they were taken away from him.

That’s fine, but leave that to the parents. The teacher could also explain that Fido didn’t get sent to a farm upstate too, if my kids are going to be crushed I’d like to be doing the crushing.

Telling first graders this? SMH.

How do you figure? You know something Hack? You really suck at trolling, step up your game or STFU.

A typical Lib, gotta ruin sh!t for everybody. In this case, poor innocent kids.

But Santa is a real phenomenon.... who cares if he's really mom and dad?

Have a sense of humor and don't be a bitch. That was actually funny.
