[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t try to police anything and actively go with what my kids want. My youngest dd is obsessed with dinosaurs and only wears Dino clothes, including dresses, pjs and bathing suits. It wouldn’t be my first choice, but who cares? She’s Dinomite just the way she is.

I remember my oldest DD had so many negative comments about how girly she was, as if being girly is less than being a tomboy. [/quote]

NP. This is how I feel about people saying you should avoid Barbies or Disney princesses for girls. If your son liked Disney princesses and you would support that, then you shouldn't have an issue with your daughter doing the same. I have three DDs and they were exposed to the same types of toys and liked different things. That's their choice to make. They're all now teens and let me chime in with PPs that this is one of those parenting choices that's pointless.

I loved Barbies and played with them everyday as a kid. Not one time did I think anything about her body type, just like I never thought about my brother's He-man or GI Joe being unattainable for men.[/quote]
