[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just painted my DD (3 1/2 yo) nails green yesterday. And she asked Santa for play make up, and she's getting it... I see it as part of dress-up, she loves to dress up and accessorize, and I don't see anything wrong with it. She won't be going out to school with make up on, but in the house when she's playing, I see nothing wrong...
I've noticed an anti-princess trend lately but honestly, what's wrong with a 3 year old playing princess?? I remember those days as so much fun and full of magic... My DD is into other things too (books, drawing, and puzzles especially) but isn't dress up, pretend cooking, and playing "mommy" normal at this age?[/quote]

sure, but playing mommy doesn't mean your daughter needs to step back in time one century.  many of us (myself included) do more modern mommy things, like work and expect the dads to do their fair share.  you apparently have minimized mommy's role to applying makeup, putting on frilly dresses and cooking pot pies.  well done, mommy.[/quote]

I never said playing mommy = cooking, if you can read punctuation marks as part of your "modern mommy thing" you'll see the "," separating the 2. And what's wrong with a mother cooking??? I must have hit a nerve with you... News flash, I am a mom, have a career, manage my household, I'm a wife AND I cook and play dress up... I know, shocking...
You must be really insecure if you feel like playing these things at age 3 takes you back a century... [/quote]
