[quote=Anonymous]DD 7 is really into The Magic Schoolbus. She sees it at school and sometimes with friends. I understand that it has educational value and is not mean-spirited, but the characters have certain “catchphrases” that she’s started to use a lot. It bugs me. For instance she will often say, if a situation doesn’t seem good, “What are we gonna do, what are we gonna do, what are we gonna DO?” She’ll often interrupt conversations to announce “according to my reSEARCH.” When someone makes a silly joke she’ll groan “CARLOS”. And once in a fight with her five year old sister she called her a “Weasley womp.” I’m scared this is harming her social skills and making it harder for other kids to relate to her. As she would say, what are we gonna do, what are we gonna do, what are we gonna DO?[/quote]
