I think it would probably have been a better idea to wait untill after xmas.

What about you slip an anonymous pressie under the tree from the fella himself or else there's loads of places around that can send a letter
from Father Christmas to him. It can be your little secret

My kids worked it out early on. But as a family we kept the majic going for fun. They knew but played along with us, it made it all the merrier.
They still get their sacks out on christmas eve at 15 and 18.

Why tell them at all?
As said they work it out for themselves at some point.....
Childhood is way to short as it is, it's nice to keep the 'magic' there as long as possible.....
IMHO of course......

Hang on...... 
......So...... who is it who eats the sausage roll and mince pie, and downs a glass of single malt that I leave out for Father Christmas, every
Christmas eve when I go to bed ?!?!
Of course he exists...........

welllll, i think thats ok actually.... if your brother just turned around to him out the blue and said, oh by the way.... then that would be pretty
poor, but since he asked... if his mates at school are telling him he's not real, then he's knows. theres no point in trying to keep it
going imho

Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all that effort of sewing a huge sack, rebuilding a fire chimney so he can easily come down and put a locost in it.
All that effort goes wasted now?

I know Santa is real as my kids go to the NASA web site every Christmas eve and we track his progress around the world. NASA wouldn't make that
stuff up. 
7 out of 10 people suffer with hemorrhoids. Does that mean the other 3 enjoy them?

I would say this all comes down to your perception of "real".
Is he flesh and blood? No... but then wold you want him to be? Would you really be comfortable with a old fat guy sneaking into your house, eating
your food, drinking your booze, all while you are asleep?
Having said that if you look at it another way Santa is absolutely real. How many times have you found yourself doing something especially nice,
something that goes above and beyond the call of duty simply because it's christmas? I know I have. In which case Santa is alive and well in all
our hearts.
Now where did I put that eggnog?
Who the f**K tightened this up!

My God!! and to think of the uproar when a poxy F1 spoiler was posted this year! I know it says that it's not safe for kids to see but this has
been the biggest spoiler of the year for me. Just before Christmas too. You miserable bunch of b'stards!!
What a way for someone to find out!

What Fozzie said, my eldest 10 is not stupid but i think she pretends not to say owt for the sake of my 6 yr old daughter and the obvious, prezzies
etc.
And who does eat the mince pies, carrots etc?.

Santa may or may not be real, perhaps a trip to the USA would produce more information.
Fortunately, for me, I'm English, and will be having a visit from Father Christmas as usual
