help my husband who usually does bedtime is out of town & the 8-year-old out of nowhere said he knows we're the tooth fairy because his friend gets $6/tooth and he only gets $2 & the only variable is the different parents & i panicked and said maybe the friend has better teeth

My 7 yr old wrote a letter to the tooth fairy yesterday. He hasn’t lost a tooth yet, nor does he have any loose teeth. He just wanted to introduce himself.

Just learned our 9y/o did an experiment on us. Lost tooth, told no one for 3d, kept tooth under his pillow. No $. Then he tells us he lost the tooth, next night there is money under his pillow. Then confronted us with his scientific evidence that the tooth fairy isn't real.

My 5 yo lost her first tooth and wanted to bring her tooth fairy swag to school to flex on her friends. This included the white “fairy dust” (baking soda). So, I sent my kid into preschool with a little bag of white powder for show and tell. Follow me for more parenting tips.

The 8 yr old just asked why the tooth fairy doesn’t just dig up dead people to get teeth.

7-year-old: How do you get money when you don't have any more teeth for the tooth fairy?

Me: You work.

7: That's a terrible idea.

Pro parenting tip: if the tooth fairy writes a letter for the first tooth with fancy handwriting, be prepared to maintain that for several years. Know what you’re getting into.

Me “What are you doing to your tooth?!”

5 “Trying to pull it out.”

Me “That’s going to hurt.”

5 “I don’t care. I need the money.”

11 lost a tooth the other day. He threw his tooth in the garbage, walked over to my wallet and took out $2.

He's a better tooth fairy than I ever was.

6-year-old: I didn't lose any teeth today.

Me: So?

6: I won't make any money from the tooth fairy.

Me: That's okay.

6: I'll have to get a job.

6yo, sniffing all of her money, waves one dollar and says, “oh yeah, this one smells like the tooth fairy”

Suggested my 10 y/o daughter pay for her friend’s birthday gift with her tooth fairy cash and she said, “No way, I sacrificed body parts for that money.”

My daughter lost a tooth today and asked if the tooth fairy was going to bring her $5 so I think it’s safe to say that not even the tooth fairy can escape this inflation.

The extreme amount of stress I feel when crawling into my sleeping child’s room to leave tooth fairy money proves I could never make it as a spy
