Do your kids believe in Santa?

If you don't have kids yet, do you plan on telling your children about Santa Claus?

If your children are already grown, did they believe in Santa?

Also did you believe in Santa, and if so, when did you find out the real truth?

My daughter, 8, still believes in Santa, along with the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy. I see no harm in it, and think it is all good-natured fun. However, my boyfriend's brother and wife have 4 kids, and have told them all there is no Santa, ect. from day one. Their reasoning is "because we don't want our kids thinking some stranger is bringing them gifts, we want them to know it is us", which seems like a selfish reason to me. I mean when they get older and know the truth, I don't think they would appreciate it any less. Their son even got in trouble in Kindergarden for telling all the other kids there is no santa.

I didn't find out until I was about 12 or something, and it was because the neighborhood kids told me, some even younger than I, and I remember being disappointed about it, and mad my mom hadn't told me before, but I got over it, and the excitement of the "Santa-watches" on the news made up for it. When they said "all children should be in the bed, santa is on the east coast"--we had to leave my grandmother's house then, because I could not bear the thought of not being in bed and missing out on Christmas, lol.
