That was my daughter's reaction, too. She was slightly pissed to learn that Santa Claus was a fake and she didn't much care about the Easter Bunny.
But when she then extrapolated that there was no Tooth Fairy, I truly thought she might never forgive me. She was furious with me for that myth for the longest time and still remembers how angry she was -- at all of 5-1/2 years old.
She demanded to know what really happened to the teeth she'd hidden under her pillow and I had to show her that I'd saved them all.
It's a funny story now, but she was really very upset at the time and so angry with me.
