Grumpy Tooth Fairy

[Theseus]

My eldest (10) had a tooth come out yesterday and since we are happy to let her continue to believe in the tooth fairy if she wants to we continue the tradition of exchanging teeth for cash. She wrote the following note for the fairy ...

Dear, Fairy could u rite
back to me please, I love
ur work,
Touchette!

I have a cold at the moment and am a bit grumpy, plus it peeved me a bit to see lazy writing in a note to the fairy so she responded ...

Dear Touchette,

Happy to write back to you and glad that you like my work. I am
also happy to have such a fine tooth. However your written
communication is terrible. If I had written such a poorly
constructed piece of correspondence when I was a young fairy I
would have been sent to clean out the Boggart's toilets for my
punishment. Please pay more attention at school and learn to
write correctly.

The Tooth Fairy

Was I too mean?

It'll be interesting to see what happens when the tooth fairy is next asked to perform!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No.

My eldest daughter's half sister was staying with us in the holidays and she had a tooth come out. She became quite anxious that the Tooth Fairy wouldn't know where to find her, I reasssured her that the Tooth Fairy would probably know.

That night on the PC I composed a letter from the South London Tooth Fairy stating that she had permission from the Scarborough Tooth Fairy to take the tooth, leave the money and that all paperwork would be sent on to make up her file.

I printed it out in a tiny font so the letter was about 2"x3".

My Mum used to handwrite tiny notes! And made little lace bags to hold the tooth/money. As you may has guessed, my Mum is a bit of a perfectionist...

That is about the sweetest thing I have ever read.

Surely its the Touche Fairy?

No - the tooth fairy should always tell it as it is.. ours has occasionally had to comment on the lack of brushing of said teeth ... as those ones aren't worth as much apparently!!! And the Swiss tooth fairy's had to get involved on one holiday... and left a communication saying that they were leaving a small deposit on the tooth, with the remainder to be found at home on arrival of the tooth by fairy mail, to my son's fairy.

Ours still carry on the tradition of writing to the tooth fairy even after they don't believe in her any more... then you can get even more cruel in your correspondence.

I could ask the scab fairy, who lives with me, to have a word with the tooth fairy if you want...

I can imagine all the other fairies standing on a picket line while the scab fairy crosses to taunts and jeers.

The TF came up last night round the dinner table, and my youngest, 10, told her aunt: 'I remember when I was about seven or something and a rumour was going round school that the tooth fairy wasn't real, so to test it, I left a tooth under my pillow without telling anyone, and a week later it was still there!'.

I just love the idea of 'a rumour going round school....'

 

[TheDoctor]

Well, how's the tooth fairy going to know if you don't tell anyone?
They're not psychic, they've just got very good hearing.

Our tooth fairy is crap and constantly forgets and then we find the money down the side of the bed later where the children haven't looked properly. The tooth Fairy is like Father Christmas, if you don't believe they don't come, so it's up to you really!
