Today is Tooth Fairy Day. I love the concept of the Tooth Fairy. It's easier to calm your child down about their teeth falling out of their skull when they know a benign sprite is willing to trade them money for it. It makes what could otherwise be a very scary experience something children look forward to. I remember being a youngling and actually being scared of the tooth fairy just because I was afraid of any magic creatures in my room. She still left me $5.
The sixth time I trusted the fairy, she left me the awful 2000's Cat in the Hat film. After watching the film I thought it was an evil omen and that the Tooth Fairy wanted to kill me next time I had a tooth. My mom caught wind of my fairy anxiety the third time one of the teeth just, oops, went missing before the fairy could get it. And that's how my mom explained to me that she got me the movie and nothing was going to get me. And she got me a DVD of Finding Nemo, and I wasn't scared of that one.
You were really expecting the tooth fairy to be that brutal?
