I experienced this with my then 10-year old. But she knew she'd have to get teeth pulled (4x) but I didn't tell her when. She only figured it out when we pulled into the parking lot. This saved all of us from her brooding/hysterics. It was all over...

My sister-in-law still has her 2 front bottom baby teeth. If she doesn't have adult teeth, maybe they don't need to pull them. Not everyone has to have "perfect" teeth.
Board: Kid Shenanigans
Yeah, it's the bottom too. So top teeth and bottom lip really covers that when you smile. I don't have an appt for the extractions, and am going for an ortho consult first. Plus I have an old close friend in South Florida I text pics of her teeth an...

My son just had to have SIX teeth extracted for the same reason. They were babies and hadn't fallen out, so the teeth had become fused and the adult teeth were right behind them. He had to be anesthetized, and he was a real trooper through the whole th...

I have horrid dental phobia from childhood experiences, so I hear you loud and clear. My daughter was born without adult eye teeth, discovered around the same age. It was necessary to extract her baby teeth in order to install bilateral maryland bridge...

Yes, we had one dentist who did not even have IV sedation available. We waited until I changed insurance andetails got a better dentist. My kids is a bundle of nerves, lost about 5lbs because he wouldn't eat with loose teeth, his gums were getting in...

That could be true about the baby teeth. My daughter is missing 4 molars. In her case, they never formed, but because she had super crowded teeth, they pulled the baby molars and let the gaps close. I think she was 10 when she had them pulled.

My kids have been so sick this year. My high school senior has horrible allergies, he is always stuffy and congested. He had a pretty good case of pink eye that lasted for almost 3 weeks. He has had two back to back sinus infections and is probably...

Regarding daughter with sore throat...not showing up as strept...I had that all through high school...come to find out...Epstein Barr Virus - Used to be called Syndrome (mutation of Mono). Wouldn't hurt to check that next time bloodwork done. Just a...

How frustrating! I wonder if you could get a partial day for your daughter, are there some subjects she could do independent study on? It sounds like she's just overwhelmed wtih the symptoms and school work as well. Stomach issues are the worst,...

Good news! Took her to the orthodontist and he said to leave them alone. Said if they pull them now then it can cause deterioration in the jaw bone making it less receptive for implants down the line. He also said that it's possible that we can get...

I had the same thing. I kept my teeth until I was weel into my twenties. One came out I had the other pulled and a partial with one tooth put in. No big deal. Shiloh

Thank you.

I have 3 baby teeth still in my mouth that never grew adult ones. They said as long as I take extra good care of them they will last! I just had a baby tooth get a filling recently because they are more susceptible to cavitys. But only having one cavit...

My 12yo got into the van, "Ugh! Our van smells like letterboxing!" I gave her a side eye. She knew her sister and I had just gone to plant a letterbox. She said defensively, "What? Letterboxing has a certain smell! It does! It smells like," [wrinkles n...

Hmm, interesting. It smells like discovery and freedom to me!
Board: Kid Shenanigans
Exactly! (But also maybe a little like dirt.) :-D

"I love the scent of letterboxing in the morning. It smells like......... VICTORY!!!" ;o)
Board: Kid Shenanigans
It smells like whatever you just stepped in.
Board: Kid Shenanigans
You guys are so funny!! Yes, letterboxing has a smell! Smells like dirt, and outdoors and ink and freedom!! As a side note when we first started letterboxing we used wipes from Costco and we wiped EVERY stamp off (does anyone still do that?!?!?!) as...
Board: Kid Shenanigans
It makes sense. My 9 year old lamented that she was allergic to letterboxing when she got her results at the allergist. She loves boxing, but, among other things, she's allergic to tree pollen, grass pollen, mold and dogs. To her, that means she's al...

My pack often smells like mildew because I've replaced old wet boxes I find and put the smelly contents in my pack and forget all about them until the next time I go boxing.
Board: Kid Shenanigans
Mildew, mold, and old ink is what I smell.

My girls entered that contest last year, I love it! I voted, good luck!! Thanks sun7flour! There are just 3 more days left to vote! Squirrelly could use a few more votes. I fixed the link (I think), and I won't pester you all again. Thanks everyone!
