00:00It's tough being a parent. We don't have all the answers. Sometimes I don't have any of the answers.
00:04And you just asked me this morning, off air, this question about the toothpaste.
00:10It is becoming... Okay, so I have a five-year-old and a three-year-old. Colin, adorable. He actually
00:16had an extra tooth in the front, and his front tooth came out like super early. So it kind of
00:21looks like he's been in a boxing match. Oh, that's so funny. And then there's Mario,
00:25who's just adorable, but he cries hysterically. He just stopped recently.
00:29Brushing his teeth. He tries to play defense
00:33with the brush, and he uses his tongue to try to push out the brush all day.
00:37So frustrating. Yeah, yeah. And I try reasoning. I'm like, boy,
00:41you need to move your tongue. Now he does it. At the end
00:45of brushing, he's like, I'm so happy, because he figured it out, which is adorable.
00:49But the problem that both of them are having, and this is where we
00:53look to you, the parents of Las Vegas, to help
00:55us, 725-246-1027. Both your youngest
00:59and my two don't spit out
01:01their toothpaste, and we don't know
01:03how to make them. Yeah.
01:05So I...
01:08With
01:08Jaden, who
01:11is 14 now, hated brushing
01:13his teeth. So that was the issue,
01:15was you have to brush your teeth.
01:17Then he would do it with just water, no
01:19toothpaste. It was such a struggle. Wow.
01:20Roman loves to brush his teeth, and he also loves to eat an entire
01:25thing of toothpaste. So
01:26I was getting him
01:28the toddler, like the baby one, right?
01:30Yeah, the one that has the no fluoride. Yes.
01:32Yeah, yeah. And then we moved on
01:34to toddler, right? We got to move up
01:36in the world, and this one has fluoride,
01:39but he
01:40swallows it all. So we had to go back to
01:42the baby one,
01:44because, I mean, what happens to you if you
01:46just eat a tube of toothpaste? I don't even know.
01:48I don't think it's a... It's not good.
01:50It can't be. And so, like, I try
01:52to reason with him. I'm like, all right, all right, all right, spit.
01:54And he just goes...
01:56Yeah, gosh. It's like, that's not how you spit.
01:58Right, right, right. What if you...
02:01We're home.
02:02We're not at home in the morning, so it's hard.
02:05Because I told my husband, well, why don't you
02:06brush your teeth with Roman
02:08so that he sees you spitting
02:10and sees the whole deal? Yeah.
02:12And my husband's like, no, I get up two hours at least
02:14before him so I can, like, enjoy a little bit of my
02:16day before, like, the chaos starts.
02:18Well, he can brush his teeth again.
02:19I guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:20You know, I mean, I've thought
02:22of going drastic measures here.
02:24Uh-huh.
02:24You know, you go to... I never eat wasabi
02:26with my sushi, but
02:29just, like, a little tiny dab
02:31and put it on his tongue.
02:32And he goes...
02:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:34You're like, see that?
02:35That's what you need to do.
02:36That's what you need to do.
02:38See, what about...
02:38What if you got a toothpaste
02:40that didn't taste good?
02:41So that he didn't...
02:42Yeah, well...
02:43He wouldn't want to swallow it.
02:43Well, what's the worst-tasting toothpaste?
02:44I mean, so, all right, we got
02:46the Colgate, the Crest.
02:48Aquafresh, super underrated.
02:50Yeah.
02:50Love the Aquafresh.
02:51Maybe we'd go, like, the
02:52Arm & Hammer baking soda.
02:55Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
02:56They won't like that at all.
02:57Right.
02:57And they'll want to spit it out.
02:59Maybe.
02:59I know.
03:00Maybe that's what we both have to do.
03:01This is the one that, like,
03:02our parents had to figure all this out
03:03for themselves, and they didn't have Google.
03:05Right, I know.
03:06How do they...
03:06Well, here's the thing.
03:07But I...
03:08My mom is, like, my go-to.
03:10Like, I call mom all the time.
03:12Hey, how do I do this?
03:13I don't Google it, I just call my mom.
03:15Because she does know everything.
03:17So, it's easy there.
03:19But I don't know.
03:20What is the worst problem?
03:22Like, Jaden not brushing his teeth at all.
03:25Hated it.
03:25Yeah, significant issue.
03:26Roman, who just wants to have, like,
03:28the mintiest fresh watermelon breath ever.
03:31I don't know.
03:32They've got to stop having bubblegum-flavored toothpaste.
03:35It can't taste good.
03:36It just can't.
03:36It can't taste good.
03:37Yeah.
03:38725-246-1027.
03:39Parents, please help.
03:42We don't know what the heck we're doing,
03:43and frankly, we're tired of trying.
03:45We don't know.
03:45We don't know if we're a missionary.
03:46I believe it can be fun.
03:46We don't know what the heck we're doing,
03:46we're very, we're incredible.
03:46While we're so excited, we'll be happy.
03:47We don't know what you're doing here.
