I really don't think I am but DH has got really cross about it and I'm struggling to see his point of view.
DD (8) still enjoys imaginary games with her friends, often these are the doctors and nurses type of thing (not as in sexual, just pretending to be ill or injured). She has a toy medical kit and a nurse dressing up outfit etc.
A friend's older brother apparently had an accident a while ago and the family has a pair of crutches lying about which DD and her friends have been playing with. Today she brought them home and said that x had lent them to her for the night. I thought it was quite funny and harmless but when DH came home he went mad, said it was weird, that it was like taking the mickey out of ill/injured/disabled (not entirely sure which he meant) people and that she looked stupid with them. It really upset DD which upset me as well, I can't see what the big deal is and don't think he should have spoken so nastily to her.
Am I missing something or is my DH just a grumpy git?
