I shudder to think about all the pressure my 3 year old daughter will be experiencing at the whim of her peers when she gets older.
So it was with great amusement that she said to me in the car yesterday ”I wanna have a big, big, big, big, fat belly jus’ like a old lady! Wiv a big, big belly I can eat lots and lotsa foods. I don’t wanna be skinny!”
However, five minutes later, as I was getting her out of her carseat, she pulled up her trackie dacks saying “I got too manys hairs. Too manys. I take dem off Mummy?” “What do you mean you’ve got too many hairs?” I enquired. “Katie said I dot hairy legs. Da boys and girls at school don’t got no hairs on dare legs. I taked dem off like you?”
I assured her she had no hair on her legs, but it guts me that 3 year olds are practically calling her Chewbucca and telling her to shave her legs. Had to bite my tongue and stop myself from telling her to tell Katie to “Fuck off! At least I can shave my legs but you’ll still be a dumb fucking cow!”
To clarify she has the faintest sign of blonde down on her legs, but I did wonder if and when this would happen given her father’s a bear…

Some kids are little shites.
Others are just adorable.
I think it’s quite clear which category your daughter falls into!
Jeez, kids these days…..
My boss’s daughter was singing a pussy cat dolls song with hip shake and everything and I wonder what the next generation is going to be like….
the pressure kids put on other kids is unbelievable…
As my parents used to travel around the country, going from share farm to share farm, I was always the New Kid at school.
At every school there were both kids that were horrible to me and kids that were nice to me.
It is not that this generation has it any harder than before in terms of kids being bastards to one another (although with global warming and dwindling resources they will face other dire problems). Or that kids somehow were not having sex and babies at age 13 100 years ago. They were. Some kids will always be bastards to others. But some always were and some always will be.
In life you run across a lot of bastards (male and female), but hopefully they won’t make you into one too.
Your daughter sounds adorable! Tell her rather hair on her legs than nothing between her ears
Adorable…but admittedly I too feel sorry for kids today…and their pressures.
