I was the parent that said my daughters would not become immersed in princess-girly-pink-"pretty". Last night I spent $100 on Pink Princess crap for their birthday tomorrow. And they will love it. And I have to just deal with that. Because they are acting and singing and dancing and that is art. It's enhancing their creativity and they are excited about it. And that's a positive, wonderful thing.<br /><br />Please god don't let them turn out to be whores.freckletreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02277829321822042967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-91235992593769285072011-01-18T12:21:51.839-05:002011-01-18T12:21:51.839-05:00I completely agree!

She's been getting into my makeup stash forever and it's made some pretty great pictures. I bought a kid makeup kit for her to save my poor lipsticks and eyeshadows. BUT she is never allowed to wear makeup outside the house because it's inappropriate. She plays princess and ballerina and her 2 y/o sisters do too. Sometimes they are the damsels in distress, sometimes they are the heroines. It's the same thing that little girls have been playing FOREVER. It's the parents job to parent. Don't buy them the inappropriate toys, don't let them go out with makeup on. Do your job to let kids be kids. But everyone is responsible for teaching their children their values and beliefs. Do your job parents and don't blame others for your bad judgement. <br />Oh, and "seriously" is one of my favorite words too :) It may be a New England thing.Kaylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12826420697691636347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-80612856468776339452011-01-17T22:10:34.334-05:002011-01-17T22:10:34.334-05:00Definitely true.

I was HORRIFIED when I went to Toys R Us for the first time to pick something up for my kids for Christmas. The things that parents were buying and the things on the shelves were so, for lack of a better word, trashy!<br /><br />I think when little girls are playing with make up and dressing up they are mimicking mommy as much as they are being a princess. That is just doing what they see us do every day, and when we are doing it it isn't to be "sexy" (well, not all the time). ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17816966413730290350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-62296927612549388632011-01-17T19:56:50.177-05:002011-01-17T19:56:50.177-05:00You crack me up - I completely agree!You crack me up - I completely agree!The Beers Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18006431820892565975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-64540229036950963252011-01-17T18:50:41.835-05:002011-01-17T18:50:41.835-05:00i completely agree!
