No. People, especially adults need to stop brainwashing children into this kind of shit. Ask anyone about how childrens brains are, and they will tell you that they are like sponges, and it is at that age they need to learn the difference between fantasy and reality. As parents, we are all guilty of it i.e. buying a Yankees babytop for your son/daughter, taking your children to a ballgame of your favourite team, taking your children to see your favourite soccer team. If parents stopped brainwashing their children with tales of tooth fairies, easter bunnies, santa claus, God etc etc, then the world might just be a different place today. Believe what you want to believe, support your own baseball team instead of the team that your parents want you to support etc. As I said, we are all guilty of it one time or another.
