When you were younger, did you believe in Santa?

I did believe in him, in fact I usually hang my socks to have candies in the morning. He never failed to give me one though. I even interrogated my mom about his existence, his gifts, and why can't I see him. I was quite dismayed when I found out that he doesn't really exist..^^ How about you? Did you believe in him?

I did for a little while, but then I just kind-of figured it out on my own eventually. I wasn't really upset or anything. I guess that is just something parents do for their kids to make Christmas more fun...

I can't really remember a time when I did. As far back as I can remember, I always knew it was my parents. lol

Wow... well, I used to study in a school which celebrated The Chirstmas Day with Santa and it used to make me so enthusiastic... like "When I become big, I am gonna travel to the poles and meet Santa and ask for a wish - not just chocolates as he gives now... When I was very very young.. around 4 years, I remember there used to be a big guy in clothes of Santa, and we all used to believe in real.
Then, at night, we used to watch some televeision show, which were exclusively meant for this... at times, TOM AND JERRY... and it made me feel like "WOW. I want to meet Santa!"
It seems so funny now!

I don't think I ever remember really believing in Santa. I probably did when I was younger, but I guess I can't recall exactly when I did.

I don't remember but maybe I do because I used to hang socks in our staircase (we have no chimneys here) and oh I was always surprised on the goodies I find, but then I just knew that it cam from my parents as I see the goodies on the ref. But there was this incident where my cousins says that Santa really visited their place, they were really convincing and even their oldies say so, I never had the chance to confront them on why they are trying to fool us.
LOL

Oh, yes, I sure did. I hung my sock too. I would find chocolates, tangerines, peppermint canes. I could never figure out why Santa would go in our refrigerator and take our tangerines and put one in my sock. That act alone would make me wonder about him. I believed in him until I was around 10.
