Does the tooth fairy exist?

Regardless of the existence issue, for a moment, let's assume the Toothfairy does exist. Would you be more, or less, comfortable if the toothfairy was male?

What if Fairy's came in pairs and it was two male fairy's holding hands?

I mean, after all, Michael Jackson managed to taint the image of Peter Pan for a while... h34r:

I'm not homophobic either, but I would prefer the toothfairy to be female. Then again, the kid's 5 so it isn't going to matter at all.

You know, IM not so very humble Opinion ( :lol: ), you're only a child once, make it *magical* for them... Or they'll end up like certain bitter PC posters.... :lol:

Have your kid make a special box to hold the tooth. They can reuse it with upcoming teeth. Leave signs of the fairy's visit. Maybe there is something better than $ that they really want from the Fairy?

 

There was a Gary Larson "Far Side" cartoon where a kid finds a note under his pillow saying something to the effect that next time the tooth fairy comes back, he is going to take them all. Something along that line can be found at:

Sometimes the "Similar Topics" feature of PriusChat cracks me up. There are a bunch of "bluetooth" threads listed below....

I too believe that you could very well become a tooth fairy.

Better that than the "kidney fairy" where you wake up in a bathtub full of ice.

 

Or what if it was a "penile" fairy whereas thereby you wake up 'nullo'?

No, Jared, there is no tooth fairy. It's a fantasy, created to comfort people and allow them to get on with their lives without having to dwell on the big scary issues, like...losing teeth. Of course, this is only my evil interpretation, and I seem to be in the minority on this issue. Not that reality would change if we took a vote, but be warned that some people feel this 'world view' is an attack on their freedoms, and will respond accordingly.

By my count, jared2, your cast went completely over the heads of the first five respondents.

Then again, to their credit, the fishhook was quite obvious & perhaps they refused to take the bait.

Well, I say if your kid wants the tooth fairy to show up, he'll just have to get down on his knees and do some honest worshipping! :lol:

Actually, it's Friday afternoon, nice sunny spring day (at least here). I think it's more like a bunch of kids outside together tossing the ball around and saying whatever comes to mind.


(What the heck am I doing in front of the computer! I'm going outside for real!)

 

Some of us cannot go out to play yet so PC is the best diversion we can manage at this time.....
