[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with you. But...would it cloud a child's view of their own name if these are the only associations they have to make their with their name?[/quote] It depends on how you teach your child. Children learn how to understand and react to associations by watching the key adults in their lives. If you react negatively to their name, they will associate bad feelings with their name. If, however, you react as if the character is just some unimportant TV character and that your child proves that the character is bad but not the name, she'll get that association. We have pre-schoolers and we work on guiding how they associate feelings with words, labels, names etc. You can teach your child that the name is a good name even if there is a bad character named that. It's just one of the myriad things that you'll teach your child throughout their childhood.[/quote]
