indeed. if you are inadvertently raising a kid who's "half Vulcan" shit like lying about santa (vs just playing linguistic games) is a canary to us. you can do it maybe twice at most before we forever take everything you say with at least a grain of salthttps://twitter.com/ctzn5/status/1041728508500869122?s=21 …
Obviously false statements are auto-game territory ("I'm as big as a house! I crush cars under my feet! RAWR!" <chase ensues>) & linguistic trickery can be a more sophisticated game, but I do think the way most parents "do" Santa crosses a line we should try hard not to cross
That said, I really don't love the strategy of ensuring all traditional myths are DOA. Pretending-games are fun! I will probably give this a *lot* of thought when I have my own children.
I’ve got three boys and we tell them the holiday myths aren’t real and/or critically consider the claims together. Still we have fun pretending they’re real together and for other kids. One Christmas our then six year old chose to believe anyway because of a movie. 
exactly. adults treat children almost entirely incorrectly. bad for the kid, bad for society in time heuristic: treat children like you would a tiny adult stranger with total amnesia
hard to describe how fucking angry it makes me when i see toddlers pointing curiously at shit and just getting nonsense babytalk from the adults around them, or kids asking questions and getting autopilot responses aiming to cease further questions vs actually engage mindfully
