So, I got drunk on Christmas...

And told my son that Santa isn't real. His little eyes welled up. I then told him about the reality of the Easter bunny. He started crying. He was pretty broken up whin I told him he wasn't going to be getting any more money for lost teeth, cuz there is no tooth ferry.

Long story short, he was being kind of an ass hole after that, so I took away his presents. One day when he has kids of his own, he'll understand.

My question is this, should I return the gifts or leave them in the corner to see, so he doesn't forget his lesson?

Drive him deep into the forest and leave him there, if he makes it home there may be some hope for him. Like Sparta. Honestly, though, he sounds like a lost cause. If he's not too old you should sell him and start over. It's amazingly easy to make children, I was never even trying...
My dad did that to me and my brother. Used to get us lost and make us find our way home.

I'm better for it.

Here's a pic of a tooth ferry, for those of you not familiar...




Edit - Damn it, Annie! You beat me to it, and yours is better. Great minds...

I would pile them outside while he watches, then inform him he has one chance to keep them.
After dousing them with fuel and just before setting them on fire I would look right in his face and say.

Pray to your fake jesus boy!

all of this probably wouldn't have been so hard if you hadn't waited until he was thirty to tell him the cold, hard truth.

what you should do is make him earn his presents back. work the little sob, make him sweat. While all the other kids are out playing, your kid can be tarring the roof..for every 8 hrs of manual labour give him a coupon that redeems 1/4 of a gift. at the end of 4 8hr shifts he can bring you his coupons to redeem the present.
