Very funny Dandy. On a serious note, I belive each child is different and will have different ways of dealing with the truth. And how it is presented to them will matter a lot to. I was 7 when I had an argument with one of my step fathers about Santa being real, he insited it was not and used the dictionary to prove it to me. I was very mad at him about, Fictional Charecter. Maybe thats why we still keep the fun of it going, even after DS 18 new (About 8 or 9), we still had presents from Santa for him.
