Today, I joked with a pregnant girl in a state juvenile correctional facility where I work that eating a lot of candy would damage the unborn baby's teeth. Without batting an eye, she responded that she would simply "eat some toothpaste after the candy." FML

OP here. Yeah, I was joking, they aren't always the most sophisticated of jokes, but it gives one a sense of where the kid may or may not be coming from. The kid, unfortunately, was not joking, and I had to explain a few things to her. Thanx for the comments. For those of you who said stop joking around and do your job...it'd be a mighty dreary place if there was no humor (lame as it may or may not be). It IS a portion of our job. This post was mostly meant as a, "f" all our lives if this is what the future holds.

Remind her she should swallow some dental floss before bedtime, too.

She's a pregnant teenager.. You should've known she wasn't very smart.

Unborn babies HAVE teeth, they usually are not through the gums at birth but occasionally they are through at birth. Usually the bottom front ones.

Has anybody thought that maybe she is neither stupid nor careless? She could have been joking with OP. And who is to say she will be a "bad" mother? You do not know the circumstances under which she was put there. Most babies do not have teeth in the womb, and so I believe OP was joking, and she responded in a joking manner as well. Common sense people
