Parents have flooded a British primary school with complaints after a teacher told a room of tearful seven-year-olds that "it's your parents who leave out presents on Christmas Day," The Daily Mail reported.
Outraged parents were sent a letter saying the substitute teacher at Blackshaw Lane Primary School in Royton, Greater Manchester, had been disciplined.
The class of 25 allegedly became rowdy talking about Santa Claus and the teacher blurted out that he did not exist in an effort to calm them down, The Mail reported.
"My son came home and said that his substitute teacher had told the class that Santa doesn't exist," one father told The Mail. "I thought it was wrong. He was distraught about it. He's only seven-years-old and it's part of the magic of Christmas to him."
You know its one thing if you and your family don't believe in Santa. But what is wrong with this guy these kids were only 7 years old. :( I feel bad for them I still to this day remember the first time that a cousin of mine told some of us that Santa was not real.

Yes... very disappointing day indeed when Dana blurted that out. :)
I never believed in Santa. But I tried not to tell others. Poor kids. I will be sad when Brandon doesn't believe anymore.
