Oh yeah I don't besmirch parents who go along with it, to an extent. But when we get to the point of saying "Don't say the expensive presents are from Santa because then Timmy will think Santa doesn't love him as much!" it's crossing a bit in to the absurd. Like if your kid is at the point of knowing what other kids get and acknowledging the monetary value of it, it's time to give up the game and just tell them that Timmy's parents are poor but doing their best, and Santa isn't a real thing.
