Not one of your FAAAAAAAANS!
I know Christmas isn't for another two and a half months, but I figured I'd ask this...
Were you afraid of getting coal for Christmas when you were a little kid?
When I was little, I actually was genuinely afraid of getting coal, especially because I was quite bratty and mischievous as a kid and often got into trouble. It didn't help that I believed in Santa longer than many kids do (I'm on the autism spectrum, and a lot of autistic people hold on to childish things longer than most people). It wasn't until I was 10 or 11 that I realized he wasn't real. I admit, I was upset when I realized that at first, but I quickly got over it, and now I'm actually glad that Santa isn't real. I feel like it's one of those moralistic stories told to children to scare them into behaving.
What about you?
