Michelle Foulia, 49, who hails from Wales, said it felt wrong to deceive her three children about St. Nick's existence, particularly because she could never explain the inequality of gifts given out to different families. “Lying to my children never felt right, not even for ‘fun’,” Foulia told NeedToKnow.co.uk. "They never believed in Santa."
