Ian: Mom, wanna hear something horrible?
(brief silence in which I don't respond)
Ian: Do you know there are some kids that are so bad that Santa doesn't even visit their house? The parents know their kids are bad and that Santa won't come, but they buy their kids presents anyway and then LIE to their kids and say it's from Santa! Isn't that STUPID?

The boy's brilliant Rindee! Too funny....
