LETTERS – Let them enjoy childhood

I am writing to you regarding your front page article of December 6 “Reception children told to smash Santa”.

I am absolutely horrified and disgusted this was allowed to happen to children as young as four years old.

The parents of these children must be furious to say the least and I agree with them 100 per cent.

As for the Mary Bass Charity, whoever they are, they should be struck off the charity register immediately along with the charity worker in question who upset the young children. I would sack them all.

Children grow up soon enough. Let them enjoy their childhood while they can!

To the parents and their children, have a super Christmas and enjoy Santa.

You deserve it.
