Nowadays, less and less people believe in Santa Claus. Some have good reasons. I have proof that he isn't real. For example, about two years ago on the day after Christmas, I found the same wrapping paper that my gift from "Santa" was wrapped in under my mom's bed. She made up some smart excuse, which I believed for a while. Last year, I woke up before my mom and the stockings were empty. I told my mom and she told me to hold on and keep my brother and sisters out of the living room while she filled them. When we were allowed in the living room, they were full. Great cover-up mom.
Besides, we also have basic logic on our side. Can reindeer fly? Could someone get out of a sleigh, go down the chimney, distribute presents, eat whatever snacks, get back up the chimney, get in the sleigh and take off in 1/1000 if a second? Can someone live forever? I THINK NOT!
It's good to have something to bribe little ones into being good all year to get something they really wanted from some guy they don't even know. They never fully think through the whole thing. Right when they hear presents, they couldn't care less where it comes from. I know he isn't real, but I play along. I ask for big expensive things from Santa because I know "he" can't say no like my parents can.
Even is Santa did exist at one time, he's dead now.

"Santa is an old man in a tight red suit (now black because it's covered in ash) that you let in your house because he says he has something for your kids."
