A jovial story for the festive period.................


This why I don't read papers, and I vet the stories I read. I saw this story the other day and read it, and yes as someone with a 5 year old son I lost it.

And after I regained my composure I thought to myself 'what did that achieve apart from upsetting me?'

The world is a horrible place and horrible things happen but that story would have been just fine - even uplifting - if was just about a dying boy, passing in Santa's arms and his last breath hopefully being a peaceful and contented one.

But in my opinion the quotes provided, serve to only upset the reader.
