Perhaps try standing to eat.

I’m now officially pissed off with the tooth fairy.  I didn’t agree with 5 for the sacred first.  Almost a month ago, I took my daughter to the dentist.  She had a pretty loose tooth.  The hygienist even avoided it and said it’ll be out soon.  Dr comes in and says it’ll be out by the weekend.  My kid, insistent on letting it come out itself, and wife trying to be her BFf, allows it.  It had to come out (now at least 3 weeks from that visit).  Barely hanging on.  Fighting tooth and nail, my dad’s tactics came out. I pulled everything my parents would have and more.  I’m told to go away.   Seriously?   I get it, she’s little and scared I was too at her age.  What the heck are we teaching her??? Man up, in her case “woman up” and get it pulled!!!   It’s finally pulled by mom and immediately she gives my wife a hug and says thank you mommy after 45 minutes of fighting it.  In the process, my wife says she’ll take her to get ice cream if it was pulled tonight.  Also in the process I told my daughter I’d double the TF money if she was brave enough to let it get pulled. Guess what!?!   Wife doesn’t take her to get ice cream and I’m now 10.00 shy.  Whole thing is BS!   Perhaps I’m too old school.  Perhaps we got lucky into tricking her on the first one.  Either way... I’m not too happy with my single spacing wife right now. You make a promise, at least keep it.
