[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m getting really tired of the comments from other moms that ask me if I hate that my daughter likes pink, or if I tried to talk her out of being Elsa for Halloween. My daughter is who she is, and trust me, if you knew her, you’d know you can’t change her mind on anything anyway. My daughter likes to play dinosaurs, ninjas, and Batman with her brother, but she LOVES unicorns, sparkles, baby dolls, and tea parties as well and I’m sorry, but that doesn’t make her any less of a strong young lady.

My daughter is a girly girl. She gravitates to all sparkle, rainbow, pink, purple, diamond, unicorn, barbie, makeup, mommy-baby play, dress up, dance, singing, nurturing, and cuddling stuffy animals. She has an interest in reading, math, science and engineering (how things work). But does not like construction trucks, dinosaurs, basketball, soccer, hockey, lacrosse. She moves from the masculine sterotypes to the feminine. She enjoys swimming, dance, ballet, piano, violin, reading, art projects, and is very social. Every child is unique. Who GAF what anyone else thinks. Do what is best for you and your child.

I do expose her to everything that strengthens her cultivation, and she can certainly play cooperatively with kids who enjoy those types of toys/activities she normally does not - but it is what it is. I don't feel bad about it. The kid is smart as a whip. Plus she looks cute in all that damn glitter.[/quote]
