"[...] I mentioned a study that came out last year. The study was about the lies that parents tell their children. I used as my example the one about the existence of a tooth fairy, pointing out that my own son knows that I am the tooth fairy, and is pretty blunt about telling others so.

[...]

"At the end of the services that day, no fewer than five parents came up to me, leant over and said that it was a great sermon, but that they had told their child who had been in the room and listening, that *I* (Rabbi Alana) was the tooth fairy."

And they freak out about the TOOTH FAIRY!

yeah... well.
