Rude. If you were a kid new to a country you would want to assimilate. It’s normal. Hopefully by high school she’ll get better quality friends.

OP did not say daughter is new to the country. OP is an immigrant. Daughter could be born in the US for all we know.

Also yes MCPS has tons of immigrants/ kids of immigrant parents.

You beat me to it. What the hell is “something cool in the kitchen?” I have the raddest old cast iron pan. Is this vintage awesomeness? And let me brag about my water distiller… You’re not cool if you don’t have a water distiller! On Wednesdays, my friends and I distill water, wearing pink.

Oh, aren't you edgy? Next, you'll learn how to properly quote.

But you got the point didn't you?

I'm wondering if anyone is ever going to explain what it would be "cool" to have in the kitchen, because I genuinely have no idea.

Really? Are you new to Google? I see you managed to navigate a message board.

Google will tell me things I can buy for my kitchen, but that doesn't really answer the question. What are you buying for your kitchen that you bought to fit in with the cool kids?

I’m not sure why you’re struggling so much with this. The ‘fit in’ comment was directly tied to a question about clothes. The rest were tied to fads.

I'm not sure why you're struggling to give a simple answer. What did you buy for your kitchen because it was a fad? I couldn't answer this question, but you seem to think it's obvious, so give us your answer.

I bought my daughter a waffle maker that makes heart-shaped waffles and a homemade donut maker for Christmas. She made it all with friends after a sleepover, and they thought it was all fun and cool. So, go ahead and pick that apart to continue your ironic bullying campaign on this minor point.

DP you're still not making sense. Unlike OPs daughter none of us are going on hunger strikes refusing to eat or prepare food in our kitchens until we have the latest item lest we be considered trashy.

+1 Another DP.

I'd tell her that it's her attitude that's trashy and if she dehydrates from refusing to drink water, she will pay any and all medical bills associated with getting her health back.

I would not buy her a Stanley water bottle.

The Owala water bottle is still cool at our private MS in moco luckily.

Anonymous wrote:Being a first generation immigrant, i just don't get it. 8th grade DD goes all day without drinking water even though her dermatologist and her doctor told her she needed to. She said any other water bottles aside from a Stanley Cup is "trashy" and she would be judged by "people in the hallway". She would rather go for 7 hours without a drop of liquid and it's clearly taking a toll on her skin and overall health. Her close friends are kind although all of them have the "right" sneakers and "right" water bottles. She's in a MoCo public school, which has both FARMS kids and kids from relatively affluent families, I was really hoping to raise a confident daughter who's not too worried about how shes' being perceived by others when it comes to material processions. Am I sending the wrong message by giving in?
