But he did write the tooth fairy a letter, to which he recieved a written response re: the fact that the tooth fairy really needs kid teeth to replenish the teeth of dinosaurs in another world. I don't know how this worked, but he bought the whole story. And now he really believes, even though he knows that Santa is not real.

I got a quarter when I was little.We've decided $5 for the first 2 and then $1 each one after.Mama's not made of money...or gold:)LOLTruthful Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13418118155979582823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6027511072264313662.post-44747947409932417202010-12-02T08:59:35.729-05:002010-12-02T08:59:35.729-05:00@4timesblessed,

She knew about the tooth fairy coming from her little friends.I've always thought the Tooth Fairy was creepy ( even as a child) and especially after seeing the horror movie:) My kid is one smart cookie!LOL You are right these stories are complicated, to make things worse, I am a horrible liar so for me to tell these stories believably is almost impossible.Truthful Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13418118155979582823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6027511072264313662.post-78920422058837065392010-12-02T08:47:20.792-05:002010-12-02T08:47:20.792-05:00we haven't had loose teeth yet..however...when...we haven't had loose teeth yet..however...when i taught 2nd grade, my students were always losing teeth. <br /><br />there was nothing more stomach churning for me when my students woudl come up to me wiggling their loose tooth. or when the tooth would fall out and they were drooling or spitting blood...or trying to get to get it to stop bleeding with a tissue. uuuuuuggggghhhhhhhhh......<br /><br />and then i was always surprised at how MUCH money the tooth fairy brought them. Some of those kids got $20 per tooth! what were they made of?

Is the magic of childhood really over when the lies about these creepy (and they all are creepy when taken at face value) adult creations are exposed? Isn't there real magic in childhood, too? Are these things benefiting our kids in any real way? It seems to me that they can be fun stories without being passed off as 'truth'. Maybe that's just me. I would (and do) love to hear other perspectives.Mitchell Brownhttp://www.thoughtfulpop.comnoreply@blogger.com
