[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Not the PP but if you don't own a TV, I think the chances that[b] your kid won't recognize a TV character at a birthday party are pretty high[/b]. We don't have one because if we did, DH & I would never talk; once it's on, we just zone out of everything else, which clearly not everyone experiences but for those of us who do, it's not some mommy crusade, it's just a lifestyle choice. PP could very well raise her child without TV. It's not that crazy of an idea IMO. [/quote] No, the chances aren't pretty high. Characters are on clothing, toys, valentine day cards, birthday invitations, gift bags, books at the library, glittery tattoos, hair bows, lunch boxes....It takes one person, telling a child one time, that is Dora or Spiderman and they will know it. Doesn't mean they watch the shows but they will know it is a fictional character. [/quote] I certainly don't mind if DD knows who Dora or Elmo are, but maybe I live in an alternate universe? We shop at consignment sales and Target mostly but somehow, most of the clothing and kid gear we have doesn't have characters on it and that's without us purposefully avoiding it. They mostly have flowers. [/quote]
