And the tooth FINALLY came out but she was asking for too much
I have 6 1/2 year old twins. Just like their older sister, they were getting bummed that they are the last ones to lose their first tooth. My oldest was about 6 1/2 as well. My twins have been asking if it's loose and I'll check it but it hasn't been loose enough. One of them started playing with it a little more and got even looser. Well, i guess it FINALLY came out yesterday at school. She was very excited to tell me. She then said, "I can't wait to get $20." Umm...what??? Apparently, that is what one of her classmates got.
Now, I know it's a parenting decision but, in my opinion, $20 for a tooth is way too much and crazy. Sorry, we are not going there. I told her that I sent information to the tooth fairies' (because there is more than one) office saying that for our family we only give $2 for the first tooth and $1 after that.
My son who is six years old a few months ago lost his first tooth at night and threw it away. I looked in the tash I was so bummin he looked at me like i lost my mind... LOL I tried ot explain the tooth fairy concept he look ed at me like I lost my mind LOL! I gave him a dollar He was like what ever. a few months later a few more came out by now he knew what it was he ripped it out and threw it in the trash in front of me demanded a toy.
To him it did not even hurt him he was like what ever , I found out later his teacher read the kids in the class about the toothfiary. I fiugred a dollar or two per tooth. LOL!
wow...when I was a kid I got .50 at MOST lol....guess times have changed. My husband wanted to give a little one I was babysitting $5 for a tooth and I said no $1 tops...especially since we weren't her parents and shouldn't be footing the tooth fairy bill lmao...but $20...that will NEVER come from this house lol
$20 is crazy. Mine gets $1.
You could go to the bank and get the gold dollar coins, so it's a special dollar.
Yeah, $20 is a bit hefty isn't it! My son ain't getting that for his lost tooth. A buck at most. I got quarters.
This is the "funniest" toothe story I've heard in a long time LOL

If your tooth fairy decides to pay $20 I will ship you my teeth ASAP. LOL
I paid $20 a tooth-but my youngest the weisenheimer figured out the toothfairy was really parents (and so was the Easter Bunny) so I told him if it was me he wasn't getting $20.
Oddly he thought Santa was still real-or he figured out it was in his best interest to say so!
I think it is a bit unrealistic to expect that much money for somethign that happens naturally. It has nothing to do with the child him/herself. It's gonna happen no matter what. I think I'll be giving about the same as you are going to give.
I remember getting a dollar coin under my pillow, and being excited about it. Because I got something for the tooth, not because of how much it was.
