My little Grandson is nine ,The kids at school have been telling him there was no Santa, He ask his mom and dad and they told him the truth ,He said you mean all those cookies and milk I left for Santa all those years you and mommie ate it .Now his little heart is broken ,he just cried and cried today.My baby is growing up

Ohhhh, those mean nasty kids!!!! How sad for him to find out NOW, right before Christmas. Then again, there are so many of us here that believe. Where is that thread?

Take him and help out a charity organization (I did it with our local animal shelter). We brought cat litter, food, dog food and toys.

Then when you are all done...tell him there is a "real" Santa and he just was it!

THANKS THAT IS SO SWEET

Cackel there are ways to heal the broken hearted.... Santa exists in all of us everytime we grant a wish, with even just a kind word....

My first two kids believed in Santa... my DW says she never believed so she had told the rest of the kids.... and I'm certain they have ruined Christmas for other kids.

And I still love her.

That is so sad! When my son was 9 the kids at school tried to tell him the same thing. I just told him those kids must have been naughty and got coal instead of presents from Santa and that's why they are trying to ruin his Christmas. My son is almost 11 now and he still believes. I thought that this would be the year that he would find out but so far the kids at school haven't said anything. Even in my heart I still believe
