[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, it wasn't just me, actually.  Everytime I come back there are other people that have said the same thing.  I just said that is what some people think. So you just make your decision in a bubble and expect no one to have an opinion on it? Or do you just not care about other people's perception that you are rubbing this child of their youth, teaching the wrong values etc? If that is the case, then I say you are more than welcome not to care. There are certain things that I do with my child that people have opinions on (they shouldn't take classes at sucha  young age, shouldn't be in daycare, I should stay home etc etc etc etc). Do I care? No. So if you are so right, don't worry about it. But if you think you are going to change people's opinion with your anger, you are wrong. And you still seem too defensive. I think a nerve was struck. Go have a tea. It will make you feel better.[/quote]

Actually, what I would very much like you to do is stop telling me that allowing makeup is equivalent to turning my child into a whore. I'm not telling you you should do it, or that you are depriving your child of something. As a matter of fact, I don't care that you DON'T allow it. But what I do care about is the judgement your are passing on my child and on my parenting because I allow her a little makeup from time to time. It's not like I'm letting her play in the street or with fire, or encouraging her to have sex at the ripe old age of 4. It's my choice as a parent to allow it just as much as it is your choice as a parent to not. Just don't call my child a whore because you don't agree with it. That's unfair to my child and you are setting a bad example for yours by thinking that way.[/quote]
