i don't judge you for not participating, but i do ask why? where is the harm?

edit: there is plenty of time in their adult lives for cynicism and skepticism. childhood is for pure enjoyment.

I agree. Kids like this kind of stuff, and there's no reason that they shouldn't believe in them as long as possible. Santa, the Tooth Fairy, and the Easter Bunny ARE real....they just happen to work through parents--so technically, there is no lie involved. I plan to take up the mantles of all three when Ash is old enough to care.
