Nawal same, it broke my heart watching him
Ryder Rumbaugh, you need to chill
+Ryder Rumbaugh you're sick, he's just a kid
Nawal that boy brought tears to my eyes. such a beautiful kindhearted soul. my heart is breaking for him that a very special childhood bubble just busted 😓
Nawal that broke my heart
"I make them with all my heart." That kid is so cute ugh
I let out a gasp when he said that because it was so sweet of him!
Rachel K my favorite kid
Chrissa - I agree. He's so pure!
I know right, I died a little inside when he said that.
Right?! Made me tear up. What a sweet heart❤
Santa told me my parents aren't real
Mahir Cave hahah😂😂😂😂😂
He told me that too
Mahir Cave lol
Mahir Cave he said to me today .
Santa told me i was adopted and my mum said ,,Love you"
“Have you met Santa Claus?”
“Yes.”
“Where have you met him?”
“At the Cascade Mall!”
Had me dying.
The dad had me dying .."well Santa's not real sorry"
@Eminem that video would be controversial af 💀
I still believe in Santa
@@AllieWilson-r4fare you 3
love youre profile
Mom: have u ever met Santa?
Girl: Yep. Cascade mall.
Sydney Photography Oh you mean that guy that gets minimum wage?😂
Sydney Photography lol
Ohhhh the 40 year old man wearing a fake ass beard that gets a few bucks every hour.
@@randomcommenter2494 he knew how much the job paid when he took it. The fact that he didn't educate himself to get a better-paying job proves that he's not worth any more money than then what he got. And if the arrangement of my words and the spelling and punctuation is not correct it's because I'm talking into my phone. Cuz I'm a hard-working man and I ain't got time to sit there and type all day.
Lol I remember when my dad pretended to be Santa and I was sitting on my lap
My dad:does his strange laugh and said ho ho ho
Me: Lol dad u ain’t freaking santa
kid: tell me all the reindeer names!
dad's inner thoughts: oh shit, he got me there
statechumps cubert
statechumps KIT
statechumps His name is Maddox and His dad's name is James just so you know
Lol
Should've said magic reindeer don't exist.
My heart broke when the kid in the cute sweater said "I make the cookies with all my heart" 😭😭
true..
Lorin Enumerables so true😭
Lorin Enumerables holy shit, it made me well up when he said that
Lorin Enumerables you guys must not realize what he's doing. that's some shit I would've said to make my mom feel bad too... he's gonna have a good Christmas 🎁🎁🎁
For real though. 💔
its interesting how some children accepted the reality, while others really struggled to accept it
Let them believe until they find out for themselves unless they believe until they’re a teen. Then u have to tell them so they don’t go into high school still believing. Usually when kids reach age eight, they might start questioning things.
Yes
Have you ever been betrayed by someone you love? Sometimes the reality is easy to forget because you don't want to or cannot in the moment except the full extent of the situation without letting time help distance you from it.
Those parents are traitor's by lying about existence of other people
I never accepted it
"I make them with all my heart." He made me want to cry so bad! Bless his heart :(
i thought that was too goofy
me too even tho I myself am a cheesy person
Nothing makes Christmas better than watching kids get their hopes and dreams crushed by their own parents
Larry Wang well said xD 👌🏻😂
Larry Wang preach
exactly... if they believe in it let them believe!! The best part about being a kid during Christmas is the magic about thinking that santa's coming
Larry Wang its awesome and MERRY CHRISTMAS
Larry Wang just like crushing their childhood when parents tell them about the birds and the bees
How I found out:
Me:*Looks inside closet*
Me:WhY DO my PArenTs Have thE SaME WRaPIng PaPer As SAnta Claus?
Kitten Blanc ikr I was wondering that for so long
I found out by reading a receipt I WAS 10
My mom would always use a wrapping paper I had never seen. I did basically find out one year because I realized that my dogs were downstairs and would bark, so I deduced that he wasn’t real. It didn’t matter though, because later on my mom told me anyway.
Lol correct
My mom said that Santa drops he presents of then my parents wrap them. I already knew Santa wasn’t real.🎅🏻
The boy wearing Santa Claus sweater is so cute. He really did make those cookies with all his heart
Ik he’s adorable
@@Imstars_football whaaatt idk how I found you here that’s weird
as an asian kid growing up my dad told me santa was fake before i even got the chance to think otherwise hahahaha
Phoebe Tan same, when i only 4 i saw the first santa and parents immediately told me that was just a man dressed up like santa
vega tk hahaha i love it
why do u say "as an asian kid" like all asian kids get told santas fake, my mom wouldn't let me not believe i santa up until i was like 10 lol. That's probably cos she was in denial of me growing up though
LittleboyTV obviously i cant speak on behalf of all asian kids, but you probably already knew that, growing up in an asian culture however i am aware that there are many such cases, i didnt actually have any friends who believed in santa growing up
And then he threw you out of the house and said "Come back when you docta!"
next video: you've been adopted
Charlie yes
Calm down, Satan!
Charlie why do people like this comment
Charlie YASSSSSSSSS

The kid who said I make them will all my heart broke me honestly.
Taco Loco ola taco loco
No vendo Trap qué hace Duki por aquí? :v

I found out because my dad sat me down one day and said, "mijo... You're 34, I think it's time too talk...
🤣😂🤣 bruh

Starseed you mean your soul mate? Hes not an animal

When my parents told me, my heart broke. I cried for weeks and I still haven’t recovered from the trauma.
I figured it out when I was 4: we sang Santa Claus Is Coming To Town, and I took it literally. Then he didn't come into the room.
Me and my sister figured it out but we didn’t tell our parents because we thought if we did they would stop giving us presents.
Thats just you being a drama queen or in your case a drama thing
@@NicoEdgysame when I figured out I didn’t tell my parents because I still wanted the presents
@@NicoEdgy same but I didn't tell my siblings, been 3 years since my parents realised I knew and now I'm the elf on the shelf
That sweety with the Santa sweater saying he cooks the cookies with all his heart... Omg heartbroken here... Let him have the magic of Christmas!
ConcreteAngelx3 he was soooooo sweet!! So precious❤️
I am a straight up man but dang that kid made me shed a tear haha
ConcreteAngelx3 i almost cried at that. such a sweet kid
imagine you're an innocent little kid and this comes up in your recommendations box...
That happened to me.......
Juliana Frith lol
@@alexjimenez7251 awe
Juliana Frith who cares
Kids young enough to still believe in Santa should not be scrolling through TH-cam recommendations, let alone be watching Cut videos.
kid: "oh snap thats a good question"
crew: * breaks into laughter *
I loved that part, especially the way he said it.
Star Girl at the very end
Luminescence Editing that was my favorite part!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Luminescence Editing Watched that part right when I read it.
4:56 “you’re the wish person, sometimes you make my wishes come true” I wanna be a great enough father to my kids for them to think of me as the “wish person”. That was so wholesome
I figured out santa wasn't real by myself and didn't tell my parents so "santa" wouldn't stop bringing gifts lol
Same
Lol same
Same 🤣
Same I figured it out all my gifts were in my parents room one day I wanted to see if he was real or fake so I searched my parents room and found hella gifts but I didn’t tell them because if I did I wouldn’t get gifts so I pretend that I think he’s real😂🤣
Same and I really don’t wanna lose that magic
Why is no one talking about the boy at 4:18 telling his mom he makes the cookies with all his heart 😭, so cute, yet so sad.
Emily Garcia yesss
I know he’s so cute
Both of them clearly shouldn’t be eating cookies, but it was still really heartfelt.
matate
Yessss that boy was so sweet and pure!!!!!!!!!!
I love the kids who are so against it. "I don't believe the situation" I love her
Kayla has still not excepted the truth. She is however wondering about it. She was never hurt in doing this as people assume. Thanks for loving Kayla so much. its really a great honor. Kayla hopes to be on tv one day.
Ikr she is so cute
No, I am the evil dad in the filming LOL. Kayla still believes in Santa but not as much as before she's questioning it now, but still comes up with her reasons why he can be real. No harm done in her case.
HotOlive Oh okay, that's good. A lot of the kids in the video, including Kayla, seemed really sad to hear those things so I'm glad that atleast she is alright
Amazing Nat Is Not Okay same she's just like me
This was the video where I found out Santa wasn’t real so thanks a lot.
Santa is real its just a prank video

"nobody wants to kill Santa Claus" 🤣
Santa needs to get run over by a herd of reindeer. : ) Stop lying to the kids.
JUST ADDISON youre right
Why would they put the kids through that?
“What happened to little boys and girls who don’t believe in Santa?”
“They do Kwanza or Hanukkah.”

Seven deadly sins
Lol
I kind of wanted Santa Claus to be fake when I was a kid because if he was he'd break my entire sense of reality and spiral me down to a worser mental state than those kids when they find out Santa Claus isn't real .
I knew Santa was fake from the day I heard about him
Even tho they probably knew
To funny, the kids choosing to still believe even though their parents are telling them he's not! perfect. That's what it's all about. believing even when no one else does.
Zyona but he isn't real
have faith
Alanz0 It's just santa claus, seriously. It's not about ignoring common sense and logic, but when they're kids it help fuels their imagination and wonder.
just to have faith doesn't make it real!!!!!, i have faith that il be a trillionaire one day and buy all the gold and silver in the world one day and have a house made entirely out of gold.... so shiny that it makes you squint your eyes. Does that mean it will be real? If santa is real? tell me how he delivers gifts to every family on earth? laws of physics says he has to be traveling at incredible speed in order to do that the amount of force will be too much and he be dead? Tell me how he didn't died of coronary heart disease from all that milk and cookies?
Yes, you are right is like when you go to a war because a country has mass destruction weapons and the truth is there are none. Just a perfect example of how ours society works.
" your cookies are really good"
" i make them with all my heart" AHHH SO PRECIOUS
I love the kids who refuse to believe their parents. That's adorable. They're so sweet.
Mmm nothing better then looking at kids getting their hopes and dreams crushed in christmas
The mine chicken agreed
The mine chicken really ??? hopes and dreams?? try more like giving a stupid made up fat guy credit for loving your kids and buying them presents when you work hard to buy them gifts not just that teach them better than that teach them to be HONEST!!! if Sana gives your kids hopes and dreams I feel sorry for them this world gosh what has it came to???
Oh, please they were going to find out soon or later either they're parents tell them or the kids at their school
Nobody's "hopes and dreams" are crushed by telling kids Santa is not real. Do you think that they will give up on wanting to be an Astronaut or something similar to that by being told Santa is not real? You are seriously underestimating kids. I highly doubt they care anyways. Even if they still believed in Santa, chances are they will continue to believe in Santa any ways and respectfully disagree.
Why U Do Dis How many astronauts do you see? I'm not underestimating kids especially of that age.
You told them too soon it would've been much better if they found out themselves
+Sarah Byrd I am legitimately not sure if you're serious or not. :'D
@sarah please tell me you're joking?
Well.. no. How can you distrust your parents just because they lied to you about Santa? They just wanted you to have someone to wait for and believe in. It's not that people make up Santa to hurt or to fool their children. y'all acting like it's a big deal and it ruined your life not to know he was fake lmao
The only kid in your class? In what hell of a Jehovah witnesses school did you go to?
Son Goku ya that's how I found out
:p
This is the saddest thing I have ever seen. 😭😭😭
My parents just waited until I figured it out.

Saint Nicholas of Myra[a] (traditionally 15 March 270 - 6 December 343),[3][4][b] also known as Nicholas of Bari, was an early Christian bishop of Greek descent from the maritime city of Myra in Asia Minor (Greek: Μύρα; modern-day Demre, Turkey) during the time of the Roman Empire.[7][8] Because of the many miracles attributed to his intercession, he is also known as Nicholas the Wonderworker.[c] Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, brewers, pawnbrokers, unmarried people, and students in various cities and countries around Europe. His reputation evolved among the pious, as was common for early Christian saints, and his legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the traditional model of Santa Claus ("Saint Nick") through Sinterklaas.

Little is known about the historical Saint Nicholas. The earliest accounts of his life were written centuries after his death and probably contain legendary elaborations. He is said to have been born in the Greek seaport of Patara, Lycia, in Asia Minor to wealthy Christian parents.[9]
In one of the earliest attested and most famous incidents from his life, he is said to have rescued three girls from being forced into prostitution by dropping a sack of gold coins through the window of their house each night for three nights so their father could pay a dowry for each of them. Other early stories tell of him calming a storm at sea, saving three innocent soldiers from wrongful execution, and chopping down a tree possessed by a demon. In his youth, he is said to have made a pilgrimage to Egypt and Palestine. Shortly after his return, he became Bishop of Myra. He was later cast into prison during the persecution of Diocletian, but was released after the accession of Constantine.
An early list makes him an attendee at the First Council of Nicaea in 325, but he is never mentioned in any writings by people who were at the council. Late, unsubstantiated legends claim that he was temporarily defrocked and imprisoned during the council for slapping the heretic Arius. Another famous late legend tells how he resurrected three children, who had been murdered and pickled in brine by a butcher planning to sell them as pork during a famine.
Fewer than 200 years after Nicholas's death, the St. Nicholas Church was built in Myra under the orders of Theodosius II over the site of the church where he had served as bishop, and his remains were moved to a sarcophagus in that church.
In 1087, while the Greek Christian inhabitants of the region were subjugated by the newly arrived Muslim Seljuk Turks, and soon after their church was declared to be in schism by the Catholic church, a group of merchants from the Italian city of Bari removed the major bones of Nicholas's skeleton from his sarcophagus in the church without authorization and brought them to their hometown, where they are now enshrined in the Basilica di San Nicola. The remaining bone fragments from the sarcophagus were later removed by Venetian sailors and taken to Venice during the First Crusade.

LMFAO
How come I've heard a giant bump on the roof before, and literally saw my elf in a different spot, after that spot, when my parents were literally sleeping, like about 5 years ago, I'm literally 20 years old, and still get presents from Santa Claus, lot of my friend's know this to and lot of parents in my family, and siblings or cousins, definitely these people are so stupid.
It was heartbreaking for the kids that believed
It's why we shouldn't make them believe in the first place.
Maybe we should stop putting the idea of Santa in there head then why would you tell your kid that Santa exists just to tell them he doesn’t later on in life
plush world master honestly tho, that’s why if I have kids I will never tell him Santa is real. As when they find out the truth they could be really upset as I would have been lying to them all this time. I will always tell my kids that Santa is just a character and he’s not real
My parents told me yesterday...
@@gameworldmaster5916 Because kids see the world from a more innocent and immature perspective and Santa might not be the only unreal thing that they believe in. It's what kids do. You don't have to tell them someday that he doesn't exist. They'll find out themselves and it'll be totally fine. Gosh, you guys shouldn't be so dull.
As an adult, I wish I could go back to believing in Santa, Christmas was so much more magical. Why rush to ruin Christmas for these kids?
Really? When I realized Santa wasn't real it just made me appreciate my parents more.
What the hell are you talking about? What magic? Fake magic , fabricated to have kids completely spoiled. There are other kind of "magical things" that you don't need to get lied about.
Zadye, you're right. Christmas isn't fun without the magic brought to it through the eyes of children.

Getting free gifts is pretty fun to me
True...giving gifts is fun too.
Technically Santa is real but he is dead. Santa or Saint Nick was a real person. He decided to go around to all the houses of children who lived in his town and delivered gifts. From there other people heard about the story and decided to do it for their children thus Santa became real and Christmas became an amazing holiday filled with joy
Actually St. Nicholas was a Bishop. There was a man who had three single daughters had no money for a dowry which was required back then for them to be married. St. Nicholas found this out and took three bags of gold and tossed them into the man's house through a window. And that was the beginning of the legend of St. Nick. Then people added all kinds stuff to it, through the years until it finally he became what we know as Santa Claus.

+Becca so?
Aishwarya Aishwarya he's not Asian his mother is from China
Gio_93 😂😂😂😂😂 China is in Asia OMG
Gio_93 He was just saying that the kid is growing up in America, so he does not share the Asian culture, it makes the kid an American kid, not an asian kid, he's just the son of an asian mother. I mean, I cant tell to a black guy that he's african just because he's black.
