'Tooth Fairy' threatens to take chore-skirting boy's teeth in 'official letter'

Published in Weird News

PHILADELPHIA (UPI) -- A Philadelphia couple took a unique approach to getting their son to do chores -- an official-sounding and somewhat threatening letter from "the Tooth Fairy."

Raymond Skwire said in an Imgur post the letter, which purported to come from "The Offices of Tooth and Fairy, LLC -- Tooth Adjusters," was born out of a text conversation with his wife about forgetting to leave tooth fairy money for their son.

The parents, whose conversation was posted in screenshot form to Imgur, hatched a plan to give the boy $5 for his tooth, along with a letter demanding he do a better job of completing his chores.

The letter, which bears the watermark of a tooth, reads:

"Dear Elliott,

Thank you for the return of your fourth molar. Here is payment upon receipt, the agreed-upon sum of $5.00 (five American dollars).

By leaving your tooth out for one of our Tooth Adjusters, you, the toothee, have entered into a contractual obligation to perform measured work, herein known as Chores. Please see the attached addendum for an updated list of these chores.

 

We have been notified by your Parental units that these obligations have frequently gone uncompleted, and often have to be requested multiple times before they are, in fact, done. If these obligations are not fully completed, without demand, in the specified time frame (every day after school or camp), we will have no recourse but to repossess all of your remaining teeth, by force if necessary, with no repayment to you.

The most comfortable solution for all three parties involved (Tooth Adjusters, Toothee, and Parental Units) is for you, the toothee, to do your Chores as expected, on time, every day. Do not make us come and take your teeth.

Warm regards,

The Offices of Tooth and Fairy, LLC -- Tooth Adjusters"

The post concluded with a photo of the couple's unamused son holding the letter.

"He didn't find it very funny, though. (We did, though.)" the post reads.
