She's not alone. Mine is a true believer, too and it is driving me nuts.
Are you encouraging her critical thinking skills on this subject? Or playing along? Sometimes you need to manually make the wheels turn.

I told my kids that the tooth fairy doesn't come once you have a double-digit age, but they already had that knowing smile on their faces when I told them. My 11-year-old lost a tooth last month and the subject of the tooth fairy never even came up.

She cried because she lost a tooth this week and wanted to keep it but didn't think the tooth fairy would leave her money if she kept it.

Santa can be possibly stretched out to ten but tooth fairy, no way. Most kids don't go for that b.s. story for very long.

I have a 10 yr old and if there is a 10 yr old who really still believes, I think it's because they aren't all that bright. I can understand some who still want to believe but know the truth.

If at 10 they really have zero doubts, then parents are going out of the way to cover and play along in a way that's stifling.

I have a 10 year old who still believes. I think she mostly WANTS to believe. She has asked before and I always ask her "what do YOU think?" and she never answers.

Yes, it's weird. Not unheard of, but weird.

I think a 10-year-old is at a place where they know it's not real but they wish it was so they work to continue the fantasy. Also, if the parents still think the kid believes, they will also work harder to continue the fantasy. It's a great way to stretch out the family fun for a few more years.

I thought they outgrew it by then.
