[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I had pretty realistic expectations of the infant stage, in that I thought it would suck and wasn't surprised when it did. My disillusionment came with the toddler stage. I was one of those, "TV is bad, why would you let them watch TV" bitchers. My daughter loves Disney Jr. I said, "Disney crap is tacky. I will not have that tacky crap in my home. I will never go to Disneyworld." Now she's 3 and... I think she'd love Disneyworld and I want to take her one day! Also swore I'd never step foot in a Chuck E Cheese... took her to one a couple months ago. When she became a "kid" and not an infant I realized that she was her own person, and liked her own things, and making her happy and letting her have a kid-like childhood was way more important than my preconceived notions about how tacky or ugly or gross Disney is. [/quote] I love what you described- so honest and respectful of the fact that these babies become their own person! [/quote]
