A certain six-year-old boy does not seem to believe in the magic of Santa Claus, as he said so in his letter to him.

On Twitter, National Public Radio (NPR) reporter Sarah McCammon posted on Monday a funny letter written by her child which has gotten viral.

Through the letter, the kid did not hold back and spoke about his skepticism towards Father Christmas. He also admitted that he only wrote the letter for class.

“I know your [naughty] list is [empty]. And your good list is [empty], and your life is [empty],” the letter read. McCammon’s kid then rambled about Santa Claus not knowing the “troubles” he has gone through.

To close his letter, the kid wrote “love” but refused to identify himself to Santa Claus: “I’m not telling you my name.”

McCammon explained that it was the child’s younger sibling who was the cause of his “troubles.”

Netizens then shared stories of how they related with some antics made by their own kids. One even tweeted that her child refused to share personal details in an essay.
