Parents just tell their kids about SC as a cheap alternative to get them to behave. They say he only gives presents to the good little boys and girls, but the parents get even the little bastards toys.
When I was around 7 or 8, I realized SC wasn't real. But I still acted like I thought he was real for a couple more years; we would always get one big expensive thing from "Santa." Tee-hee.
And yes, I was a little scheming bastard child.
