Cleaning Your Teeth

By Betty Briars
1) Allow Mum to insert the small bristly stick into your mouth. Pull your most "I don't like this" face until you decide whether you do in fact like the taste of the toothpaste.
2) Once the tooth paste has been deemed tolerable to thine palette, sit forward and nibble at the brush while Mum does the donkey work of removing the plaque from your three gnashers.

3) When you feel your pearly whites are suitably scrubbed, begin to interfere with proceedings and hamper Mum's visions of ending the activity without a battle.
4) With Mum having clearly deemed you incapable of managing your own oral hygiene, it is time to show her who's boss.  
5) Intercept total control of the device, before quickly completing the final brushing, flossing between each of your three teeth and swilling with a fluoride based mouthwash. Rinse out your mouth and the toothbrush, before returning it, and your toothpaste, back to the drawer.
That'll show her.
