at to Tell
About Santa
The Truth
With Tact
(By AL CONNOR)
"Daddy, is there really a
Santa Claus?"
The smiling four-year-old sat
on her father's lap, looking up
and betraying concern as she
asked this question.
The question was asked with
trust. The little girl, or it could
have been a little boy, expect-
ed the truth for an answer—
the same truth every child ex-
pects and is entitled to when
any question is asked of the
parent.
But how can the father an-
swer? If he does tell the truth,
he will shatter one of the most
subject, Dr. Chisholm said there
was no )arm in perpetuating
the myth of Santa Claus as long
as the child was taught gently
to accept it as a myth.
It is largely a question of
how the child comes to grips—
as he ultimately trust—with the
truth about Santa Claus.
From Playmates
If he learns from older play-
mates, in a jolting and unfor-
getting fashion, the child then
begins to doubt the honesty of
his parents and the security of
his familiar standards.
How then should parents han-
dle this problem? What should
children be told about Santa
Claus?
Judging from experience with
my two children, I would not
wish to deprive any child dur-
Is this little girl old enough
truth about Santa Claus?
delightful fantasies of child-
hood. If he gives her a fabri-
cated reply, he will betray that
child's trust in him.
The legend of Santa Claus
runs deep in Christmas tradi-
tion, and most Canadians have
grown up with fond memories
of their years when he stood as
the symbol of wants fulfilled, of
wishes granted.
Damaging
For others, howev r—accord-
ing to modern day psychiatrists
—the Santa Claus legend can
have damaging effects. It is
wrong to teach children fan-
tasies, they argue, adding that
it could encourage a person to
shy away from reality in adult
life.
The most famous and out-
spoken critic of the Santa Claus
myth is Dr. Brook Chisholm of
Victoria, B.C. He says that no
other statement he has ever
made—and he has issued many
outspoken opinions—has ever
aroused such wrath as his con-
demnation of Santa Claus.
To this day—and the state-
ment was made several years
ago—Dr. Chisholm maintains he
was misquoted. He didn't just
attack Santa Claus, he says now.
Rather, he sought to draw at-
tention to the general problem
of parental honesty with chil-
dren.

the wonderful
ing its early year of the won-
derful image of Santa Claus.
But I would say that parents
should avoid a dogmatic and
Final attitude toward Santa
Claus.
Natural doubts creep in at
an early age, anyway. The child
soon realizes Santa would have
great difficulty getting down the
chimney, or flying around the
sky with reindeers. Every San-
ta he sees on television at
Christmas time has a different
face—as do the various Santas
encountered at stores and
Christmas parties.
Just Helpers
The explanation that they are
Santa's helpers is a good one.
As a first step, it generalizes
the child's concept of Santa,
and helps to remove it from
the image of a single person
and into the whole—and much
safer—area of Christmas good-
will.
Finally, the child must be
told eventually — probably at
the age of about seven — that
Santa is a, symbol of love and
goodwill. This should come
from is parents, whom he
tr tell him the truth.
A seven-year-old will much
more willingly accept a tactful
explanation from his parents
than a brusque declaration from
his older playmates.
But more important, he'll
have new respect for his par-
ents, realizing that his Christ-
mas gifts come from real peo-
ple, who sacrifive to obtain
them, rather than from a far-
away, never -to -be -known image.
