To be nauseated by parents calling their children 'princes' and 'princesses'?

[sneezecakesmum]

Excuse me if its been done to death....probably has as its a puke inducing term and I can't be the only revolted individual???

Shes traipsed about 100 men through their lives, sells them out, publicly cristises and has spats with one of their fathers, is pictured on a daily basis wearing very little, sells every intimate detail of her life to the tabloids/OK magazine is a diabolical role model for anyone never mind her own daughter and she should fight tooth and nail for her disabled son or any of her kids.

I guess I disagree.

sneezecakes do you know of a celebrity who HAS hidden their disabled child away? I mean, for the celebrity's benefit and not the child?

Please don't think I'm trying to attack you, but I wonder why the assumption was made that she was likely to hide her disabled son. Because it would make her look less than perfect? Give her enemies something to be smug about?

How do you know she isn't pushing her son's disability into the public specifically to make her look like a better person?

Funny story r.e BIL's girlfriend named Princess (She is African, has a brother called King and sister called Queenie), on entering Thorpe Park BIL and girlfriend were pulled to one side for random bag search. They asked her her name and when she said it, she got into a lot of trouble for larking about (they were mid teens) eventually the security guy asked another of their friends who confirmed she was indeed named Princess!!!
Slight deviation but funny all the same

I know a little girl whos Real name is Princess, it was weird at first but, definitely got used to it. I have called friends LOs Princess before, think its quite a nice term of endearment.

Cant ever seen myself calling my son 'prince' though, just doesnt sound right?
I do call him lots of strange names though... Pumpkin, Sweetpea, Chicken, Cherub, poor kid, therapy is going to be needed.

Oh right its chavvy
bollocks

Do you mean its a working class term of endearment?

Awight princess/treacle/swedart

Nothing wrong any of them.

my dcs get called pickles and monkies and pooface and smelly etc.

Anything I want to call them.

I never cease to be amazed about the things people will be snobby about.

Well I'd make you puke then as I have called my sons all sorts of stuff from prince, angel, darling when we are sharing some private time together or cuddling up. Also might say Tongue in cheek, so ner!

You admire someone for not hiding their disabled child away?
I have heard it all now.

I admire my neighbour for not shooting her children.
I admire my brother for not beating his wife
I admire my husband for not shagging around.

What about bum face, it's my little nick name for my son (he's 14 by the way)

Yeah ,how dare those WC oiks be affectionate with their children.

Recently several parents (celebs/author) disclosed they have autistic children, so yes they were technically 'hidden' away. but i would say this would be more a matter of privacy, so not bothered. jordan just fought back against a disgusting excuse for a 'comedian' taunting her child, so yes admire that.

Jordan also won a debate at oxford against a feminist!

NOT a jordan fan as such but have accepted she is an astute business woman, just dont admire the business she created.

... If your name is princess, that OK!

They havent hidden them away!
They have chosen not to have their children in the limelight. Unless you are saying they have given their NT children exposure and pretended they didnt have another child?
I havent heard anything like that. Who did that?

Jordon won a debate against feminism?
You mean she is against equal rights for women and you think that is a good thing?

I think you have more to worry about than what people chose to call their children.

I am also confused that you would start a thread about a nickname that makes you want to throw up but admire someone who has formally called their child by that very name.

Nicknames are great..there's an old Jewish saying "The child that is loved has many names" and it's true

Katie Price did a half hearted documentary and got nowhere.

Boyle is a twat, i dont need KP to tell me that.

How were they technically 'hidden away'? Were they locked in the attic like Mrs Rochester or summat?

dd2 is a 'queen' is that ok?

Jordan won a debate against a feminIST! Dont you read the DM?

No I dont but you clearly do.
Which explains a lot.

Like why you think 'winning' a debate against 'A Feminist' is something amazing and admirable.

They were not hidden away. Their parents chose not to treat their children like little money makers regardless of their cognitive, physical or neurological status.

My son goes to school. I dont drag him around everywhere with me everyday.

Is he hidden?

KPs daughter is called princess.........so thats the league all those other princesses are in!!

What does that mean?

YANBU. It's icky.

I call my DDs "treasure" is that nauseating...?

I can't see anything wrong with people using terms or endearment, if they treat them like spoiled princes and princesses that is something else altogether...

I said I was NOT a fan of KP in general. She is uber chavvy and has called her dd princess. nuff said about the princessification of little girls!

Why are people on here so bothered about the way in which other parents refer to their DCs?
