When my younger sister was in kindergarden and I was in the first grade, A little girl that was a friend of my sisters told her that Santa wasn't going to come to their house that year because they didn't have any money. My sister came home and told Mom that if Santa was going to her friends house because she didn't have money then she didn't want him comming to hers. My folks sat down and talked to both of us girls. I think my younger brother(4 years younger) and sister(10 years younger) just caught on after time. But it never diminished the spirit for us.
