We all believed in Santa Claus, and that the earth is wrong with that? It turns out that years of lies about the bearded wizard, supposedly-bearing gifts under the Christmas tree as a reward for good behavior, can undermine parental authority and injure the child's mind. For more detail,
Fraud or a joke?
On the eve of moms and dads New Year unintentionally elicit from the offspring which gift they want from Santa Claus, and outright blackmail. Reassure the child worried that a child who is well behaved, will find many surprises under the Christmas tree, and who dabbled (not eat broccoli, teasing the cat, lost mittens, broke my dad's phone, painted my mother's lipstick on the bathroom mirror seals, etc.), he may be left without a single gifts.
This "educational course" makes the child time to New Year's Eve in a terrible anxiety: What if this year, the old man from the North Pole is really watching over me and definitely decides to punish me? This is the first.
And secondly, it is harmless, this lie that is literally "mother's milk" absorb our children? Sooner or later they will grow up and realize that the main myth of childhood, the good wizard - only the parent invention.
Prominent child psychologists from the University of Exeter (UK), Christopher Boyle and Katie McKay found: for children that Mom and Dad lied to them all these years, can be fatal. "If they (the parents) can even lie about this, how can we trust them at all, as it is possible to continue to treat them as" Pillars of Wisdom and truth "?"
Why do it?
Indeed, why parents are so passionately support the myth about Santa Claus? Scientists have suggested: so moms and dads like returning to a time when they believed in the miracle of Christmas.
They want to relive the pure joy of the holiday expectations and delight when in the New Year under the tree waiting for you the same gift! So the myth about good old wizard longer needed by the parents than children. Scientists explain this and the huge popularity of fairy tales about Harry Potter, The Hobbit, Star Wars, etc. We all come from childhood, and all my life and then strive to return to the "homeland."
