She told the students that Santa doesn't exist. The teacher got fired.

The children began to cry after her words, and Myra Sansone-Aboyoun, the mother of one of the girls in class, said she had barely calmed her daughter for hours after school. The whole situation hurt me a lot. My daughter believes in Santa Claus and worships Christmas, and all that brings her the time of celebration”, Myra claims.

Other classroom children's mothers created a platform on Facebook to express their thoughts.

She told them that Santa Claus does not exist and that parents themselves buy gifts and place them under trees. She even urged them not to fly irresponsiblely, since magicians do not exist. But she did not just talk about it, she explained that parents themselves change their teeth for money under their pillows. An adult tried to destroy their children's beliefs”, wrote one of the mothers in her status.

The principal of the elementary school later apologized to his parents through a letter.

I'm also the father of three children and I know this is a sensitive topic. I hope your children will soon forget this incident and continue to enjoy the celebrations,” he wrote.
