Following legislation in Evil Dictators Happyland, parents who tell their children about the Tooth Fairy are sentenced to hard labor.
You misunderstand my point. I'm fine with fairy tales, I just don't like it when people frame their fairy tales as moral absolutes when, even in their native stories, they are not, and the children are expected to treat them as moral absolutes even long after they've rejected stories like the Tooth Fairy as exactly what they are - mere stories.
But now that I think about it, if there's an issue that allows you to ban teaching about the tooth fairy, I'd probably do exactly that...
Did the state just supersede the role of parents?
