Parents, take note. Lying to your
children and convincing them that Santa Claus is real could be damaging, as it
may undermine you kid’s trust in you, researchers said. Million of parents across
the world convince their kids Father Christmas is real. According to
researchers, parents may not be motivated by purely creating magic for their children,
but by a desire to return to the joy of childhood themselves. Children’s trust
in their parents may be undermined by the Santa lie, they said. It they are
capable of lying about something so special and magical, can they be relied
upon to continue as the guardians of wisdom and truth? The morality of making
children believe in such myths has to be questioned.
