Yes you do. Put down your notebook and relax. Um, it's been a while. After the age of three, a child starts developing the ability to look beyond its own needs and begins to appreciate other people. In fact, at this age children have very little ability to see any negative in people and the world is full of heroes.
Children learn and practice how to please other people by simply giving their affection and love.
Sure, they are doing it mostly to receive the affection in return, but there is nothing wrong with that in and of itself. Too soon their brains will be able to comprehend guilt and manipulation and the purity of the cycle becomes difficult to continue. Too few preserve the ability into adulthood. But it is the their faith in the power of their love, a faith that is strong in this age of innocence, that makes Santa real. I think I'm starting to get the idea.
