When did you stop believing in the Tooth Fairy?

Probably 3-years-old and now I'm 14-years-old. I didn't believe in the Tooth Fairy or Santa Claus even though my parents tried hard. I could never believe anyone could circle the world and back in one night to bring gifts or money. This Christmas, they will probably still tell me to go to sleep early so Santa Claus will come. My eyes will open about 1:06AM and I'll get at my gifts. I'm not knocking little kids from believing in them, but I just didn't.

What?!? The tooth fairy isn't real! Whatever next, soon you'll be saying Santa Claus and the Easter bunny don't exist!

No, I think more people believe in paranormal now, but weé started to accept it as a common occurrence.

I say don't tell them.  Let them believe as long as they want.  If they stop believing, let them tell you there is no tooth fairy.  Don't stunt a child's imagination and faith by telling him or her what they should or should not believe in.

the tooth fairy doesn't do dental work.

according to my dentist, who loves to discuss this while doing a prophylaxis on me, their role as dentists is now shifting from cure to prevention. moreover, with the introduction of flourinated water, there is a gradual shift from cure and maintenance to "repair" (such as braces). also, their role in "medicine" and "oral health" is increasingly being recognized espcially now with the emergence of "oral surgeons" in recent years.\n-it is far from a 2000-word essay, but i hope it eased the burden

I lost my teeth back in high school. yes yes yes....true story. Here I was getting ready for my Junior year in high school. Two weeks away from cheering in my first varsity football game and I go on a date with a guy who takes me to the lake. I'm extremely competitive. The guy asked me to race him across the lake. He was on!! I dove in and swam my heart out. He and I had been on the same swim team since we were 7 years old and it was high time I finally beat him!!! But WHAM!!! I swam right into a metal pole. Came up for air and tasted all of my cracked teeth in my mouth. *sigh* \n\nAfter the shock and horrid tongue lashing I received from my parents......I adjusted to the fact that my smile would never be the same. But you  know what? Dentistry is amazing. I went through temporary crowns to permament ones. I'm on my third set of crowns and most people that know me don't know a thing and can't tell they aren't my teeth. I think I survived my stupidity ok in the long run. And hey.....I won the race!!! ;)\n\n\nAnd for the record. I sooo hate my curly hair. I'm thinking I'd look good with the Sinead O'connor look. What do you think?? Get back to me once you've stopped laughing. :)

Who's to say there wasn't a Santa clause, Easter bunny, tooth fairy. The only one with actual evidence is evolution. The rest are just stories made up by your parents. No God, no problem

I'm going to have my daughter keep believing until she figures it out on her own, and if she wants to continue to believe that's fine as well.\n\nPS. She is 8 years old.

I used to have dreams where I lost my teeth sometimes as well, and from what I can understand they can mean several different things. Here are a few of the links I found through a quick google search for "losing teeth dream interpretation":\n\nhttp://predictions.astrology.com/dd/teeth.html\n\nhttp://www.dreamsleep.net/dreamsofteeth.html\n\nhttp://www.experiencefestival.com/a/Teeth/id/232010

I'm unsure about my beliefs now, but I was a believer purely out of fear. My parents raised me christian and when I was really little, they made me watch a movie about the rapture. I believed even more solidly because I didn't want god to get mad and take my family away from me. Now that I'm older and seen all the other failed predictions about the end of the world, I don't have that fear anymore. And for various reasons, I now question the existence of god.

This varies on the kid. I, personally, stopped believing in all holiday characters in first grade, but you might just want to look at this website.

If I believe in the tooth fairy, the Easter bunny and SAnta Claus (not to mention Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer), would you think the less of me?
