Mum slammed over 'savage' tooth fairy note until parents realise 'clever' plan

A mum was accused of being 'cruel' over a tooth fairy note she left for her son - until parents realised her 'brilliant' plan. The parent wrote the note from Angelica - the name that the family have always used for the tooth fairy - and left it under the youngster's pillow.

It read: "Sorry I couldn't take your tooth as it has a cavity, please ensure you brush more thoroughly in future." She later posted the note into a parenting Facebook group, where she quickly faced backlash over the 'savage' message, according to Manchester Evening News.

One commenter wrote: "I ain't preaching as I'm very relaxed with my kids eating as they are a healthy weight, but just feel this is a bit harsh when all kids love the tooth fairy experience,". Another said: "I know it’s hard times but this is savagery."
