How to tell your daughter that the Easter Bunny isn't real?

[oldtimer54]

Go out and find a road kill bunny and throw easter candy and a torn up easter basket around its dead little rabbit body...then go get your daughter and drive her to the accident scene and camly tell her that there will be no more easter bunny because of some hit & run driver who was probably drunk and most likely an undocumented alien.......!

The fuck you talking about? The Easter bunny is real my mom stayed the night last night for the big day and I woke up to a bunch of eggs all over the place. If the Easter bunny ain't laying candy filled eggs who the fuck else is??

 

[bluntmassa1]

We were/are poor, so when I was growing up, I don't think my parents were willing to give credit for their hard earned dollar to some mythical nonsensical creature...

It was always "here, mom and I got you this..."

For real it's kind of some bullshit I spent like $400 on my kid for Christmas and Santa is all she talks about.

Let's figure this out. You and your mother were the only ones there? That narrows it down to two.

Can't you just dress up Aunt Christy?

That's how it always went down when I was a kid. Its how I'd do it if I had kids.

That is actually a really good idea. Then if my wife finds that it is her, I can maybe get all 3, the bunny, Christy, and my wife out of our lives! thanks Unc!!!

I've decided it's high time to let her know. I just don't know how I should start the conversation? Anybody have any input? I was thinking of starting out something like "Honey, sometimes adults need to tell children things that sometimes aren't true. Like how Aunt Christy isn't really your aunt. And just daddy's wrestling friend from work. The Easter bunny is just a mythical creature used to make spring fun and daddy buy stuff" That may be a little strong I think though. I shouldn't tell her that the Easter Bunny died should I? I'm worried if I say that she'll want to have a funeral. She's kind of morbid like that. How would you tell your two year old that the Easter Bunny isn't real? We let her have Santa last year but I'm gonna have to think of something for him too. Maybe something work stress related?

Neo this beautiful little girl of yours deserves to have a childhood filled with magic, santa and easter bunny. whats the harm her thinking they are real just while she is growing up, life will become tough and all to real soon enough, my little granddaughter is the same age and this morning when she saw her easter eggs she said where have they come from, and her mum said easter bunny brought them! she said what easter bunny has been in my room while I was asleep and her mum said yes and she replied why was the front door not locked! bless her she is so funny. No harm will come to your baby girl her thinking these people are going to bring her presents and chocolate eggs and the wonderment in their faces are pricless.

Nice troll, @neosapien

Kids just come to terms with things like the Easter Bunny, Santa, etc, as they get older and mature. Most figure it out on their own by 10, by 12 you should probably tell them or it starts getting weird socially for them at school.

She wont be shattered, she'll be excited to hide the eggs for the little ones next year.

I say let them be kids as long as possible. You can't give it back once you take it from them.

It was suppose to be for you and your imagination and that short moment in your life you thought magic was real.

But like you said, your parents wanted the credit, so they got it I guess.

My parents lied to me and let me believe in all these magical things growing up, and fuck was it awesome while it lasted! I mean, to believe a fucking rabbit was gonna shit candy filled eggs all over the place just because it was his day to do so, was a 10 on all scales.

And even still, my parents got all the credit. They just had to wait a couple years for the magic to wear off.

as a child i never believed in anything nor had hope in anything

i just woke up and went to sleep knowing were just living to die to early and were fucked from conception and i remember thinking this way back when i was in 2nd or 3rd grade

so when it was a holiday i knew everything was pretty much bullshit conceived and plotted by my family members and parents to fuel a tradition started by good intentions and blown up by greed

Problem solved

Will this be the year, I wonder?

I was raised in a religious family, so Santa, Easter bunny and all the rest were not real. We celebrated Christmas like everyone else, but focus was on why… same with Easter. We were not poor but definitely not on the good side of middle class. Don’t get me started on “ST Valentine’s Day”… celebrating a religious figure who married people in secret and was put to death for it… I am not catholic. So any saints day means nada to me.

Think it will be more crushing when you find out god was a creation of man to keep the masses in control........
