He wasn't challenging me. He isn't that kind of child. He just didn't know that the chicken on your plate was once a bird you see on a farm. And he was my oldest. So one year I'm telling him to believe in Santa and the Tooth Fairy and a few years later I'm looking like a liar. It's no big deal. The oldest one takes care of all that messy stuff by keeping the younger ones informed. In my opinion that's just one of the reasons their personalities differ.
