Nothing about 12-year-old Jack Thom suggests he’s mentally scarred after discovering his mother had lied to him about Santa.
“I was pretty chill about the whole thing,” said Jack, a seventh-grader at Portage Park Elementary School. “Also, people always say he comes down the chimney, and I always thought, first of all, he’s a bit too fat to come down the chimney. And second of all, I didn’t have a chimney ... because I was living in an apartment.”
