I don't consider myself the most emotionally mature person on Earth but seeing parents say that they refuse to let their kids believe in Santa because they want to be the one who "get the credit' for the gifts is genuinely pathetic to me

#like you're really that pressed at your 7 yo not being grateful to you specifically for their christmas presents? ok.....#weird ass mentality as far as i'm concerned but ok....#honestly i respect not wanting to raise ungrateful little gremlins but that really sounds childish af to me idc #especially if they're really young like that's a toddler with no concept of money why do you even care about 'getting the credit' with them #anyway as somebody who worked as a mall elf and seen the pure joy and hapiness it brought children #i'm just not convinced in any of the anti santa arguments i've seen and i've seen quite a few #now i do think some children just won't believe naturally #and i even know some kids don't benefit from the concept of santa generally speaking #( i have a friend who was terrified of the concept of santa as a young child and had to be told that it was all fake)#but for the vast majority of kids? get the fuck over yourself and just let them believe in the jolly old man in red smdh
