i found out for myself when i was about... 8?
Yes, i think thats when..
Anyway, my older brother had told me he saw santa flying on his slay at around 2am the year before, i wanted to see him but i conducted this clever scheme.. stay up!
so anyway, i stayed up, looking at my window, hoping to find him.. then, at around 3am i saw something in the reflection of my window, i couldn't believe it, he's finally here!!
By the time i turned around, he was walking into my dads bedroom, i followed, horrified to see my dad about to pick up my stockings
R.I.P santa

edit: Hold on.. we're ruining hundreds of kids lives here!

6, asked asked my dad

i'm glad i stopped ;>

I think I stopped believing in Santa when I was about... 6 years old (after going to school, that is). My mum told me she had been the one putting all those sweeties in my sock. At first I didn't believe her because my cousin had told me about seeing an elf once (who would you trust, your mum or your best friend, eh)... She was a couple of years older than me though - suppose she just lied.

But I do have my own personal Santa who shares her candy with me during Christmas. So Santa's spirit isn't quite dead yet.

Caw,
Santa clause is real
Who else puts all those presents on your bed?
Stop trying to make me think he isnt real

Sinterklaas is much better then santa, AND he is real. I saw him yesterday, together with some "black pete's" at my university

Since i was 6, it was night and i woke up then i suddenly saw my dad so since then i had never believed in them

I beleived in santa til i was about 9 =/, i kept asking how he could fit throught the chimney, WE HAD NO CHIMNEY! so my dad said we'll leave a key out, when i went to bed i heard my dad saying, what time should i put the presents under the tree.....and also i saw loads of my presents in the attic at christmas eve

Sorry little ones but he is not read
although i have to play along, my brother is 5 so i gotta make him beleive it is true

probably till the age of 6 or 7 . i dont remember how it was, but it wasnt anything sad like the usual "my friends told me and i started crying" kinda story, lol

the youngest people around are 12-13 so i dont think you're ruining anything at all

I always knew my parents put out the presents, and then more recently, they were all their before christmas eve, so yeah. In that sense, for a long time I never believed Santa came down and chimney and put the presents out, though we used to leave mince pies for him, and water and a carrot for Rudolph.
Aside from that, I guess I do still sort of believe in him, and I did used to, when I was like, 5 or 6, just because it's nice to think there's someone so nice and happy and jolly out there.
