"We lie to our kids and say their birthdays are on a different day each year"

Meet the parents who admit they "lie to their children" - by telling them their birthdays are on a different day every year.

Abbie Guy, 26, and her husband, Callum, 27, a Carlisle United footballer, made the decision to ensure both parents could be there on their children's special days.

The pair have two children - Ava, five, and George, three - but Callum's strict work schedule means he is often training or playing in a match on their actual birthdays.

Instead of letting it get in the way, Abbie says they decided to just tell the children their birthdays are on a different day - when both she and Callum are not working - so they can do something fun to celebrate.

And the couple say their kids haven't rumbled their lie as of yet.
