On a visit to a national trust property this weekend, we excitedly took DS (nearly 3) and Granny to meet Father Christmas. This is the first year he's really started to understand Chistmas, the idea of presents and of course the big man in red. he also has a clear understanding of what naughty / nice is. Apart from being a bit shy and hiding behind his Dad's leg DS was perfectly nice, gave his name etc although didn't sit on Santa's lap so when the moment came for the "have you been a good boy this year?" question we were expecting a photo moment, big smiles, gift etc... However Father Christmas said he thought DS had actually been quite naughty this year. Cue tears from DS. He'd already asked DS's age so knew he isn't even 3 yet. I want to write & complain, If its "only" a joke and "just" a visit to Santa then don't charge £3.50 and advertise it for small children, but for the national trust I would someone who gets that you don't joke about being too naughty with a small child on the subject of Christmas pressies....AIBU?
