The Tooth Fairy (or Easter Bunny, or Santa Claus . . .) : a fun and harmless fiction, or a pointless justification for lying to children?
Such fiction is harmless to children. Eventually they will grow-up and realize that lying is the “norm” in society – from the Fifth Amendment right to remain silent and to lawyers being taught to outright LIE in the courts of laws.
However, lying to children is a pointless justification to reinforce behaviors of COMPLIANCE through shallow rewards systems of being “nice” and NOT naughty for toys, coins and sweets.
But to take away the fun leaves nothing unchanged: that humans are gullible little brats, who’d seek rewards from a stranger, such as lies from politicians and words from God. Bahaha!
