Forgot the tooth fairy was a regular black mark. Usual excuse was "tooth was too far under the pillow and the TF couldn't get it" |

I told mine once it was too windy for the tooth fairy because she's so small. She left a note the following night to explain.....phew  |

Can just see the thought process "Hmmmm canapes and champers or iced rings and squash? If I could just convince her it's another day I could do both!!" |

Made school packed lunches for kids for school.
Get a phone call from school as the ‘water’ I’d given my step-son was in fact vodka 
It was a bottle taken to the park the day before that was put in the fridge |

Driving home from football this evening my son asked me what I would like his girlfriend to look like and does she need to be cleaver ( he's only 11).
He said because I want you to like her.
I told him the most important thing is she likes you for you that she treats you well, shes kind, respects you and she's honest.
Oh he said!
Just make me laugh...xx |

Not that I have kids of my own but when I do the same rules apply
When the niece and nephews hear the ice cream van and ask for an ice cream I tell them they only play music when they're out of ice cream  |

I've also left I owe you notes off the tooth fairy because I'd nothing less than a 20 and oh yes the all time classic on my son 1 year. The new action man was just out with the movable eyes. Remember them well he was desperate for 1 and me being the twat I am decided I'd have a giggle. So I told him there was a new better 1 just out did he want that for his birthday instead I asked. What is it he asked wide eyed. It's an action man deserter son. Ye ye ye ye he said God the tears when he opened the box and it was empty and I explained he must have run away again. True story  |

Like you said we mess it up sometimes. But I'm sure most of us are great and we put too much pressure on our selves as parents. For I find my self so busy with work and domestic duties I find little time to spend time playing with the the kids. That is what always makes me feel guilty. I just hate there is not enough time in the day. But someone has to earn the money, do the laundry, wash the dishes, get stuff ready for school in the morning etc.
I was in the dog house last night. Forgot to put eldests little blanket in the dryer before bedtime. She was not happy about going sleep without it. Luckily I managed to slip it on her bed on the way out to work this morning. |

Walking down the only road I've ever known! |
I bought daughter an I phone last Christmas and she's destroyed in the last 10 months I've taken it to be repaired 5 times for broken screens new batteries, So the last time it happened I have her my old Samsung. Well last night she asked if I'd get it repaired as my phone is to slow and not enough memory, So we charged it to see if it would turn on and low and behold it did, could see remember her pin number could she fuck.
Can't even unlock it as she's broken the home button. So I told her there was no way I was paying for another screen new home button and a complete reset, well you can guess the look I got from a 12 year old girl who's life depends on what social does and says. 30 minutes later she says well my mam's buying me a new one for Christmas soon suppose I'll have to do with your old crappy one. |

My almost 9 year old hasn't lost a tooth for a while now but the last time she did I went to go in her room but noticed she had her iPad plugged in and propped up to record her. She done the same thing on Xmas eve. I have to drop to my belly and snipe crawl across the floor to get the iPad and then go and put the money under the pillow or put the stocking in and the presents. I've told her that tooth fairies and Santa won't come if they know you've got recording devices to catch them. |

That is fantastic. Clever little moo "
Honestly the stuff she does, I had one Xmas where she put her motion sensor room guard of bugs life big hopper grass hopper thing facing the door so when I walked in it activated and said loudly "did you bring me my food". I've had string attached to her bed posts and around the desk legs hooked up to bells so it acts like a trip wire. She fucking sleeps through it all anyway so it's pointless but have to give her props for innovative thinking! |

My youngest told me to put her tooth under her pillow, so the tooth fairy could find it and leave some money.
I replied "You don't believe in Father Christmas, so what makes you think the tooth fairy is real?"

These are all really funny. Our tooth fairy has missed a few times. Ive always said the room was too messy for her to get through.
I did have a why did Santa use exactly the same wrapping paper that all our other gifts are wrapped up in. Kids dont miss a detail do they |

Did exactly this, this week.Daughter is 9. Had to do a sleight of hand thing with the money and go look it was here all the time...
But why did she leave the tooth mummy?
Must have been a busy night and she had too many to carry....

I had a celebration for my daughter, it was so much fun with music dancing and lots of family that I didn't realise till it had finished that I forgot to bring out her surprise cake.
Oh well there was plenty of cake for the next couple of days. |

I'm gonna do a scrap book tyoe thing with anything that will make her say "daaaaad " in that he's doing it again voice. She's gonna love me haha |

Our son lost a tooth yesterday too. I actually remembered to put the money in the envelope, however when I went in he woke up- needed a drink. So I popped him back into bed and waited..... and fell asleep woke up to him at the side of the bed saying 'mummy! She didn't come!' Felt awful, especially because he'd questioned whether not she's real and I'd told him 'well if you wake and there's money then she must be real'. Shit!! |

I used to do short term respite care, mainly children whose main care giver would be 'absent' for a set period of time.
I was lucky... I got adopted.
I just wanted to help in someway pay back a debt I felt I owed.

He's 6. And questions everything! He has a very science based mind so always looks for the evidence, and bad mummy here fell asleep and failed to provide it! He's too young to know the truth!! |

As do I and wanted to do it myself but then my marriage went tits up so end of that. I grew up in care myself and really wanted to help the lost courses as I had to wear that label. I remember thinking back then how much I just wanted to be wanted by somebody. I'm sure there's plenty with the same feeling just getting more and more angry like I did. |

When my son was 3 he got up and came down stairs and caught me fucking in the living room. He asked what I was doing and I said we were wrestling. He asked why I was wearing those clothes (pvc) I said it was my wrestling outfit. He then asked if he could wrestle too  . I explained no it was way past his bedtime. |

I had the opposite, I had to tell my boy Santa wasn't real when he was almost 13 and heading off to high school! Couldn't have him getting laughed at for still believing but oh my, he actually cried and I felt so awful |

I had my eldest (dyslexic, not very confident reader) son convinced that the little statutory label on those ride on machines at supermarkets and amusement arcades, (that actually just gives the name of the machines manufacturer, where to contact with any issues, what coins it takes etc,) does in fact say "Very sorry, the big boys broke this machine"... 
I'd then give him a penny to try it, which of course would just drop out the coin return slot.
The poor bugger grew up thinking ALL big boys were complete hooligans!
It only changed when the youngest, (very confident reader at 5 ) grassed me up and told him what it really said! |
