Oh wow. This is hysterical! If my child had penned such lovely notes, I would definitely have kept them.

I love how Annissa directs the Tooth Fairy to not correct her spelling, but to focus on the real heart of the matter of getting her damn $ to her. STAT.

And I love how Annissa is going to speak with the higher ups of mom & boss before going to another Tooth Fairy. She really wants to give this Tooth Fairy an opportunity to course correct.

Absolutely hilarious!

“If you don’t give me what I want I will find another Tooth Fairy” – EPIC. How did the kid learn this? Young enough to believe in the tooth fairy but old enough to threaten to hire rival contractors.

“Don’t correct my spelling”

Wow, people, c’mon, it’s a little kid. They are like this, whether their parents are trying to knock some sense into them or not. It’s funny, and most of them grow out of it. My cousins, all raised by different types of parents, and kids of friends, can all be like this. Even the smart, well raised ones.

It isn’t like she is having a fit in a grocery store because she can’t have a candy bar, or saying this to some adult and being disrespectful. She is writing a note to some imaginary person, asking “Hey, where is my money?” After all, don’t we tell children they will get money from the tooth fairy?

Plus, some parents forget, haha. Or they don’t have the money at the moment. I pulled all my teeth out, one after the other, and my mom just gave up. Perhaps they thought it was funny! A six year old doesn’t exactly *need* money, and some parents like to play games like this, right or not.

I found these hilarious, and could imagine a frustrated little girl looking under her pillow and finding her tooth yet again, and writing these.

We really have no idea how the parents responded to these notes, only that they were written and kept for posterity.

Just because her parents saved the notes articulating her demands does not mean they caved to the demands and patted her on the head for being such a demanding little princess. Sheesh.

If you want to add a little magic to the Tooth Fairy experience I highly recommend this website http://www.mytoothfairypictures.com. I used it with each of my children and they were overjoyed to find a picture of themselves with the Tooth Fairy the morning after they had lost a tooth. I had a great time making these photos, and an even better time watching the smiles on my kids’ faces when they discovered them.

No, they’re not. Yeah, a kid might get like this. God knows I did. And my behavior was *corrected*, not treated like it was precious.

Thank goodness.

And no one here is bullying a child. Please, just don’t. People here are questioning what the heck happened and why A. a little kid wrote these notes and B. why her attitude wasn’t corrected.

You know what happens when a behavior (good or bad) is treated with approval? Well, what do you do when someone is approving of something you do? Oh, you repeat the behavior? Exactly.

Okay, now that’s a cute Tooth Fairy note.

Mystified – Have you never, ever, in your life encountered a jerk? Not once? Someone with major self-entitlement problems? Someone who thinks they deserve more than they’ve gotten for no other reason than they exist?

I’ve met those people, and because I live on Earth, I know those attitudes didn’t randomly spring from their psyches in their twenties.

I do agree with you on one point, Mystified. This thread has me, too, worried for the future of humanity. What the frak is wrong? Hold up a mirror.

If I had written these as a young child, the Tooth Fairy would have stopped existing for me immediately and I wouldn’t have had another reward for pretty much any milestone or achievement for as long as it took it to sink in with me that it’s not okay to be disrespectful, especially to adults.

If this is real, which I strongly doubt (what with the variety of handwriting and all), then it’s not the kid’s fault, it’s the fault of adults who think an attitude like this is adorable. When they’re six it may seem sweet, just like a puppy who nips and chews and jumps on you.

And just like when that puppy is a full-grown St. Bernard, a 25-year-old with this same attitude isn’t very cute at all.

I’m sorry, but this is highly self-entitled, bossy, and disrespectful and I’m honestly glad I was never allowed to speak to adults this way.

Every one of the notes is written in a different handwriting, and some follow the lines while others don’t. Obviously fake. Probably some parent who wants to show all their friends and relatives and say “ooh look how smart and expressive she is!”
