My daughter is 11 and is on the autism spectrum. We won’t let her near public schools for this reason. She is very easily influenced, and even though she loves Jesus, I could see her jumping on that bandwagon in a minute under the right (or wrong) circumstances. Homeschool your kids if you can.

Kudos to you for protecting your daughter like that!!! Homeschooling would be more difficult with this circumstance. I know because we have an adult child with intellectual disabilities. She did public school but if it were now….i would never leave her in the system. I would move mountains to homeschool her now. This pales in comparison, but we never told our kids Santa was real. We always told them the truth about all that. The teachers of her class back then had her convinced Santa is real. To this day she tells us he’s real when we tell her he’s fake. 😂 Now, we are still friends and chat with this particular teacher to this day. But I still say the programming is real even if this is a minor issue.

maybe tell her that yes, he is real. He is called Saint Nicholas, a Bishop who lived 270 to 343, and who loved and protected children and gave them presents
