DS1 got some money for his birthday, and as he loves his dolly, and is too tall for his stroller (the £5 type ones aimed at 1 year olds) I let him spend his money on a lovely toy silvercross. His Dad, and all my in-laws, are horrified. DP has even told me its not 'normal' for a 7 year old boy to have a buggy!

Haha a screen shot of the opening post has just been shown on Matthew Wright and they're discussing it now.

Apparently we scrawl our posts with crayons and have too much time on our hands.

He knows us so well Grin

Not exactly a recent post he's picked, is it? Confused

No but I think he was linking it to a story in today's papers about a 3yr old boy who told his mum he wants to be a girl or something.

Did you see the beginning when he referred "the foul-mouthed withces that inhabit Mumsnet" Grin

DS is 6 and will still play with his puschair, baby and his cot and I can still see him wanting to when he's 7.. he will still come down in his fairy dress Grin

He has taken to saying "I know its supposed to be a girls toy and its frilly pink, but I dont mind (about the Argos copy Build a Bear), he's just had some Zoobles and was cross they were considered 'girls'. I think it a shame that he has reaslised there are some things he would get teased about
