As a dad with a four, three, and two year old, I’m in full support of this.
I don’t remember elf on the shelf as a kid.
The whole concept is creepy and I’m comfortable teaching my kiddos to be good to impress Santa - whose existence is on par with spider-man, superman, etc. - so he’d WANT to give them presents, for being good humans.
But I fully admit i still don’t know what I’m doing 95% of the time as a parent…
EDIT: by “in full support of this” I mean abandoning the practice of elf on the shelf, not bounding and hooding said elf
“…the elf doll is an emissary sent by Santa Claus to observe children and report back on their behavior for judgment. The elf cannot be touched or the magic will be broken; it is a silent observer, a CCTV camera with pointy ears.” 😭
I assume no parrent knows what they are doing and by the time they do the kids are off to college 😂 🫣 🤔 🤗
I actually like the elf. Me and the wife have fun moving it around. One point we set it up with a crossword puzzle book and a pencil, my six year old kept laughing.
Yeah, if you’re in the passing lane, and aren’t passing anyone, I’m pissed. I don’t care if you’re going 10 under or 50 over, the passing lane is exclusively for passing.
In this case Finland actually takes care of their people and homelessness isn’t a problem there. They’re just really polite introverts who I might guess prefer sitting alone as opposed to on a bench close to others.
Source - my introverted niece met a Fin, fell in love, moved to Finland and is in absolute heaven. Her husband has visited the States a few times and is always overwhelmed with the casual social interactions with strangers in public.
Apparently they’re being made by Sineu Graff from Denmark and this is somewhere in Helsinki, but I heard that those aren’t too common in Finland, so hold your horses, you isolationists ;)
