Tooth fairy?? (lemmy.world)

Who came up with the tooth fairy anyways, this is ridiculous.

My kid has been talking about it because some classmates have lost teeth recently. It got me thinking the whole thing is bonkers. We're supposed to sneak in and put money under their pillow? How TF do we do this without waking them up? And HOW MUCH? Has the tooth fairy kept up with inflation?

My kids haven't lost any teeth yet. Looking for input and fun stories from parents with kids who have lost teeth!

Tell them the Tooth Fairy is a winged species of Bone Fairy. They both get in the same way, by children leaving the lights on when they leave a room.

All fun and games until the Ischium Hag shows up to collect her prize.
