Joke is on you when she becomes an entrepreneur and starts collecting teeth on the playground.

I was running yesterday and some neighborhood kids were selling lemonade for a dollar. I just waved because I didn't have any cash to give them. On my next pass, they were announcing that they have Venmo! Take your little asses inside


On the corner of Broussard and a cross street? I drove by them too. Those little girls hustle. I've seen them out there at least a half dozen times. Winter, summer, doesn't matter.

When your oldest child loses their 1st tooth and all you have is a $5 bill, the going rate for teeth is now universally $5………

Tooth fairy inflation is one of the deadliest and most deceiving types of inflation. You think you’re good, then your kid comes home saying Katie got $20. But you already know Katie is a spoiled brat that comes from old money, yet you can’t say anything about it. Now you’re doing $20. Katie tells her mom. Now she gets $30. Rinse and repeat

Just tell your kid Katie probably has cleaner teeth because she brushes them when she's supposed to.

Found the poor.

Remember the old gold dollar coin? That is what the tooth fairy did for my kids. Was something different.

Sucked on the nights when I didn’t have one and would have to drive all over hell and back to find one.

When my niece lost her first tooth, the tooth fairy gave her $5. Grandma gave her a $50.

Ours gives $5.

BUT

I will say my SIL fricked it up becuase she gave her son 5 gold dollar coins. So of course my son tells me the tooth fairy must be parents because it doesn't make sense that he got a $5 bill and his cousin got gold coins.

We do $5 as well, which seems to be the norm with everyone else.

That is the hardest part when you think you’ve got the same number as all the friends, and then a spoiled only child tells your kid they get $20/tooth

dude I was getting $1 back in the early 80's. Hasn't inflation or the cost of living increases in 40 years made it worth a 5 by now? You're probably right tho just give them $1 and teach them to invest it
