Want that the story about the teen aged alien that came here to jack off?
Buy a lottery ticket on a state where I don’t have to publicly state that I won. Wait until it’s close to a $1,000,000,000 USD and there was no winner. Retire. Help my family but not tell them I won. Just say I invested really well and have done extra cash.
I’d wait for a cure to alzheimer’s then go back and hand over the cure to my younger self, but I doubt I’ll see that cure in my lifetime. So yeah go for the money.
Mathematically that’s either doubling or just over doubling… Need a lot of money to make a real difference.
Fair number of answers, no one saying what country they are from
US here, we had to ask but it was basically always a yes.
Reasons for a no:
Middle of a test
Middle of explaining something important, then you might be asked to wait a few minutes
If you were just abusing the system asked always asking just to get out of class they would probably start saying no. If you had a medical issue you could always meet the teacher after class or before school and say you have a medical issue that prevents your from waiting. It it was a sudden thing like diarrhea… Well just get up and go.
Judge: I see your point. We’ll try you as a juvenile then you can spend time in a juvenile detention center where a priest will watch your every move.
I’ve never met anyone who could honestly say they were traumatized by finding out Santa wasn’t real. I’m 50+ years old.
Unhappy? Yeah.
Sad… Yeah
Traumatized? No
Find something that gives you a sense of worth. Something that makes you feel part of something larger.
You will find your independence along the way
If that’s enough to cause them trauma, I kind of feel sorry for any kid with that thin of skin.
Tell me that doesn’t sound like a mob boss’s name.
You do you. I don’t see it as a lie, but again you raise your kids as you want.
Same reason why we have the tooth fairy.
Same reason why we create all sorts of other things for kids. To allow kids to be kids and have fun. To help them see the good in the world before we rip the rug out from under them, and show them the world just plain fucking sucks.
That’s one way to go over the wall
I would not tell the truth that Santa is fake. I would tell them the Santa brings presents.
I was about ten I think. Might have been 11. Figured it out.
No kids but yeah I definitely would tell them about Santa and let them enjoy their childhood. Life sucks. Let them enjoy the first few years.
Edit : I would not tell the truth that Santa is fake. I would tell them the Santa brings presents.
Solid proof of God? Yeah that would change things
Solid proof that the source of all life on this planet actually began on a different world. The critical components came here via a comet or even an spacecraft that inadvertently dropped it off. Should screw with a lot of ideals
At first, I was going to down vote you then I realize something, if you don’t really wanna be there then don’t be there because you’re not gonna be a good jury member anyways.
Just another fuzzy creature to snuggle with. She wanted to share
