		<description>I do not have any kids of my own yet, nor was I really grew up on the whole &quot;santa&quot; thing. I mean I knew about him.. we just didn&#039;t really have that whole &quot;gift giving by santa at night&quot; thing. My parents just gave me the gifts. 

Honestly, I think it depends on which side you choose to support. If you decide to stick to your Jewish customs, then I think you should stand firm on not believing in Santa. Because from experience of working for Jewish people, I&#039;m pretty sure they don&#039;t. Then the explanation to your daughter would be that because of your religion and customs.

When it comes to other parents lying about it. Just tell her it&#039;s a story that started a long time ago and it&#039;s sort of a tradition that most people want to keep.

Hope that helps?</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t really have a comment about your Santa post. I just wanted to say that I REALLY love the layout of your site. So clean and uncluttered unlike a LOT of other blogs out there.

		<description>The Santa question was one of the few things my husband and I didn&#039;t agree upon when we became parents.  Personally, I didn&#039;t want to lie to my kids about someone who doesn&#039;t exist.  I also wanted them to appreciate that the presents came from loving family members, not some dude in a red suit.  We eventually decided not to promote Santa, because we didn&#039;t want our daughters to ask us why we lied to them.</description>

		<description>I think kids are smarter than we think they are. If they can figure out reindeer can&#039;t fly then I&#039;m sure the rest is figured out. I think this Santa thing is more fun and entertaining for the parents than the kids.</description>

		<description>My mother didn&#039;t want to lie to me. She told me there was no Santa, but I chose to believe friends and complete strangers at the mall who would ask me what Santa was bringing me for Christmas. My poor mother.</description>
