I wish I could be that committed to dental hygiene XD
Side note: when I was little, my mom wanted to make sure my bothers and I didn’t swallow too much toothpaste on accident. To achieve that, she told us the toothpaste was poisonous and we’d die if we swallowed too much. This was…not the best approach. I’m 28 now and I still can’t quite shake my ingrained reluctance toward teeth brushing XD
My parents put the toothpaste on mine and my brother’s brushes. We had these bags of silica gel on the windowsill- tiny balls that help reduce damp, and they’d told us they were poisonous. One night my brother filled my toothpaste with them.
Yyyyeah, never totally got over that one either.

That makes the teaching of how important brushing is soooooo easy.

I SAW THIS BEFORE EVERYONE ELSE! <3
My parents told me a similar story. ^^;
This is why I’m glad they have non-toxic toothpaste for babies/kids now. :)
Ha ha! Our 19 month old does the same thing. Loves his toothbrush!
