... said DD1 to me this morning with her eyes alight.
I just want to weep.
For all that I tell them again and again that girls can have any toy, that there are no girl and boy toys and colours.... the message is apparently falling on deaf ears amongst the onslaught of pinkification my children are subjected to.
DD1 honestly believed she couldn't have a Nerf gun because they were for boys, even though she wanted one. But now there's a pink one, she's good to go.
And still you get people saying that pinkification isn't an issue and you should just ignore it and buy "what your children want".
FFS!
