On the light side, this is a funny take on the tooth fairy. It would be funny, were it not so close to the bone…

‘Children losing teeth will find no money under their pillows for many weeks as the government has ordered the tooth fairy to undergo police background checks before she can continue working with children. “Employees of all government funded organisations have to undergo CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) checks before they can work with vulnerable members of society,” explained police chief Sir Ian Blair before reminding us that the tooth fairy in funded with tax payers money. Although the current residing tooth fairy has been in office for 40 years, she has never undergone a CRB check due to mythical creatures being “a tricky grey area.” “Much as we’d like to believe in them, not all imaginary people can be trusted,” explained expert on magical beings, JK Rowling, who is in support of the government decision.’
