"Oh that!" said papa a little annoyed, picking
up a toast he had dropped. Mama said "Don't
worry Tania. It is perfectly normal. The teeth
you have now are baby teeth. They usually
start falling out at age 5 or 6 years."

"Oh! said Tania still looking scared. "What
happens then? Does it hurt when it falls out?"

"Not really." said mama casually. "The tooth
will shake for sometime and then when it

becomes very loose it will fall out. Don't
worry about it honey. It is all quite normal.
We can talk more about teeth this afternoon
when you are back from school."

Mama's calm attitude comforted Tania and she

left for school.
