Sons dad is having Santa on Xmas eve

[Hariboqueen1]

I’m actually hoping someone will say it doesn’t matter and I’m being ridiculous. So basically my son is staying at his dads the day before Xmas eve and he told me yesterday that he is telling my son that Santa is coming early and on Christmas Eve. So on Christmas Eve Eve my son is putting out carrots mince pies etc and on Christmas Eve morning Santa is leaving a stocking and presents under the tree. So basically everything that happens on Christmas Day. I’m really annoyed about it and I think it’s selfish as my son is having a Christmas morning on Christmas Day he doesn’t need two, his dad is only doing it as he wants to experience the whole thing. I think this will confuse my son and just make it so unbelievable he’s only 5. Why would he get two stockings? He’s literally going to have so many presents from santa. Why can’t he just say the presents are from him. I think it takes away the magic of Christmas morning, the excitement that Santa has been as of course he’s been as he came the day before. If he told me this weeks ago I would have tried to persuade my son to stay there Christmas night as I just think it’s werid to have two santa visits. What does everyone else think? Would you be annoyed?

not really. He could have had him Christmas if he wanted. I dont get jealous over my son having fun without me. When hes not with me I hope hes always having fun. It sounds like a lot of people do though reading the comments; I dont understand why people would get jealous when theyre children are having fun?

I don't know why some posters are giving youa hard time you just asked a question about something you have never done before I hope it works out and he has a great Christmas.

I can get why you'd feel funny about it.

If you are having turns each year maybe you could have a little tradition where you do it st each house.

He will still be really excited at yours too.

Everyone knows Santa comes twice for kids whose parents aren't together. don't they?
