AIBU not to care that I’ve reached a new parenting low?!

You know those times when you say ruefully ‘I never thought I would say/do X’, and shake your head at your pre-parenting naivety?

I have reached the ultimate ‘i never thought I would…’

i never thought I would buy A FARTING TOOTHBRUSH. And what’s more, I never thought I would be DELIGHTED with it.

yes indeed, a children’s toothbrush which farts after each minute of brushing. 5 year old DD previously brushed her teeth at the speed of a cheetah- now she brushes away diligently, waiting eagerly for the fart which tells her to move to the second row of teeth and start again.

It is genius. But I fear I may have lost all my dignity and culture. Send help!

It IS GENIUS!!!
Now, please, you must share where you bought this toothbrush! My DS would love it!!

Dignity and culture - go read some fiction or non fiction and dignity and culture will magically return to you.

The problem is that I got it off some weird instagram advert and I can’t find it again!! Hang on…

What ab absolute genius idea!
I may buy one for my colleague to celebrate him getting his invisaline off. Despite being a man in his late 30s he loves fart humour.

Bloody brilliant parenting. Well done.

Barrystea123 · 10/06/2025 08:44

Wow, thanks! Just bought one instantly for my 4 year old. Rejoicing in this parenting low....

‘Eagerly waiting for the fart’.

😂

Danikm151 · 10/06/2025 08:52

Ok I need one for my 5 year old

BarbaraVineFan · 10/06/2025 09:03

It’s honestly brilliant. She just gets stuck in brushing her teeth every morning and evening without fuss. Perhaps the novelty will wear off but I hope not too soon!!

Now just off to redress the balance by reading War and Peace while drinking Earl Grey

Do they make them in adult size? 😁

Brilliant item. Shame too small for DGS
