DD is 3 & a bit, she's a happy, mischevious little girl with a lovely imagination, she plays lovely games with her stuffed toys etc for hours & chats away giving them names etc.
Anyway - in recent weeks DD has played a harmless game of wanting to be called Mr.Tree, I'll call DD & she'll say 'No I'm not DD I'm Mr.Tree' & so I play along, 'Mr.Tree would you like a drink', 'Mr.Tree would you like some lunch' etc etc, she finds if funny that we're all calling her Mr.Tree & she has great fun. She even went to nursery today as Mr.Tree & the nursery staff are playing along too so she's loving it!
My mother (who I'm slowly learning is a toxic parent) thinks it's awful that I'm playing along, she says I should tell DD to stop being silly & refuse to call her Mr.Tree. Once again I feel like a bad mum & am second guessing myself. It's harmless though right? I mean come on, she's 3, she's playing a game, having fun why wouldn't I play along with that?
Please someone tell me I'm NBU?
