Are we creating a donkey sized personality disorder? Should we worry about her Stitch fixation too? Is SIL a little black rain cloud?

DD likes In The Night Garden so for xmas she has lots of ITNG stuff (even though I hate the program) what is that doing to her?

Whhhaaaaaaaaat?

People really do talk some bollocks. I think this says a lot more about your SIL's personality than your DD's.

Perhaps she thinks that Eeyore is code for Grand Theft Auto?

What on earth am I likely to be creating indulging ds in his Darth Vader, Darth Maul and Storm Trooper obsession? I dread to think what your sil would think!

Eeyore was the only animal in 100 Acre Wood who ever talked any sense. If your DD liked Tigger you'd need to worry.

You are fostering donkey-love and really, with donkeys, what's not to love?

SIL is a fule!

I was Eeyore as a child. He was my role model and I am fine

And if she is right your DD will fit right in on MN in 20yrs or so

Is this a true comment?

anyway, I like a negative anti-social attitude.

It's for real.

DD is a bit 'dark' in her sense of humour.

This is not a problem for us, but we may be living in an Addams-style delusion.

Addams style delusion sounds fabulous. Don;t knock it.
