i can see getting angry about the whole commercialism of the "day" but not sure why lying is an issue, seems harsh to call it lying like we are some how harming the children. I don't think telling them about santa is so bad, i would prefer it maybe if we were let say treating it like a thanksgiving and making it about the family time and food, and not gift giving.
i hate that it is turned into a money driving event but i understand that it helps the economy and makes the little one smile, so i go with the norm. but dude, lying? just seems like you have a hate on for kids. not sure i understand this view point.
