Aussie mum is FURIOUS after daycare teacher removes daughter's wobbly tooth

A Melbourne mum is furious after a daycare teacher removed a wobbly tooth from her daughter's mouth, even though the child told the teacher to stop.

The west Melbourne mother took to Twitter complaining about her daughter's tooth removal, claiming it oversteps the body autonomy she's been trying to instil in her daughter.

Many Aussies agreed with the mother, but others said the teacher's decision to pull out the tooth was not a big deal, and that the mother was overreacting.

'It's pretty important we empower children to be able to ask an adult to stop touching them,' wrote one.

Another said: 'A newbie teacher did that at my old school and immediately was dismissed. We don't wipe their noses so why would we yank out a tooth.'

'My elder sister ripped all my wobbly teeth out, she even made them wobbly so she could rip them out! All my teeth are absolutely fine today at 35.'

Another mother said: 'I'd be grateful. Nothing worse than pulling teeth.'

'I wish one of my kids' teachers had pulled my kids' wobbly teeth out! Grossest job out. Parenting really sucks sometimes. Give that worker a medal I say,' she explained.

'Relax, it's a tooth, not open heart surgery,' another Aussie said.

'Some kids go to school with a tooth barely holding on. If the teacher hadn't done it, then it could have been swallowed. Good on the teacher for sorting it out.'
