I’m writing this as someone who has mostly lived in the US and Canada. Personally, I find the whole “lying to children about Christmas” thing just a bit weird (no judgment on those who enjoy this aspect of the holiday). But because it’s completely normalized in our culture, this is something many people have to deal with.
Two questions:
What age does this normally happen? I suppose you want the “magic of Christmas” at younger ages, but it gets embarrassing at a certain point.
And how does it normally happen? Let them find out from others through people at school? Tell them explicitly during a “talk”? Let them figure it out on their own?
Never lie to them in the first place. Also no circumcision. Just don’t do predictably horrible shit to little-yous who have to live with the fallout
Who said anything about circumcision? Lol
On the topic of shitty things to do to a person
At least 3 downvotes as of now. Peak Lemmy.
So peak lemmy isn’t “whining about downvotes” anymore? Someone forgot to CC me on the memo.
To me, Lemmy is in not better than Reddit. It has the potential to be, but it seems like a certain type of person came here. Far to the left, about as crazy as people voting for Trump, tho not as terrible in the effects, but about as disconnected from reality.
Look at this comment and the answers below.
