I'd never heard of it (maybe I'm too old). DP is mortified that during his visit with his DD she was singing it:

I couldn't get on the link but I really wouldn't worry too much. My DD age 4 was prancing about singing ' I wanna have sex on the beach, come on everybody'. I was very upset and didn't have a clue where she heard it as I was always careful and turned radio/tv off if an unsuitable song came on. She is a lovely well brought up young lady of 20 now.

OMG! I had a very interesting evening pre DDs 7th Birthday checking through lyrics on her new Karaoke machine for suitability before her party.Didn't come across this thank god!

It's actually the latest in a list of things he's been horrified about, DD drinking at Christmas, using phrases such as 'skanky bitch' etc

My little sister at age three was singing "I want to be a hippie and I want to get stoned on mara marajuana"

Grin

She isnt nor has she ever been a pothead.

I sung hymns at school even though I was and am an atheist. Just happen to like singing along to songs or tunes I like.

StealthPolarBear · 07/04/2014 21:06

Your 3 year ols was drinking at Christmas? !

StealthPolarBear · 07/04/2014 21:07

Ok your dp's dd
that's not on the same league

MamaPain · 07/04/2014 21:07

Each to their own, I don't think its going to do her any harm. My DD somehow at 4 knew all the words to Nicki Minaj songs, I don't play NM (am not a fan and would have been far more impressed by her learning DMX lyrics), I still to this day have no idea how she knew them. Hasn't done her any damage just made me swerve the car once or twice!

DS1 used to sing that I'm Horny, Horny, Horny song, totally oblivious to its meaning or my horror.

LittleprincessinGOLDrocks · 07/04/2014 21:11

So your DP 3 year old DD was drinking at Christmas? I find that more troubling than the song lyrics (which she could have heard from anywhere to be fair).
Has your DP spoken to the mother about his concerns? How does he know she was drinking at Christmas?

PaperPomPom · 07/04/2014 21:12

I'm fairly sure my parents were horrified when I paraded around singing Right Said Fred's "I'm too sexy for my shirt" when I was young. I think I turned out ok though.

StealthPolarBear · 07/04/2014 21:12

I assume these are x posts but a three year old drinking is coming to harm
a three year old using phrases like 'skanky bitch' is not good. its a world away feom singing a pop song.

fayrae · 07/04/2014 21:13

How was the 3 year old drinking? Having a sip of a relatives drink?

fifi669 · 07/04/2014 21:15

DP doesn't think she should be swearing at all, let alone singing fuck repeatedly and lines to do with sucking cock. Are we really unreasonable to think her mum shouldn't be allowing this????

fayrae · 07/04/2014 21:15

sucking cock? wtf?

Ludways · 07/04/2014 21:17

When my dd was 6, she used to sing that Flo Rida song, "you spin my head right round, right round, when you go down"

No idea where she heard it but clearly she did somewhere.

LittleprincessinGOLDrocks · 07/04/2014 21:18

you didn't answer as to how you know she was drinking alcohol?
No the words are not appropriate, but she could have heard it anywhere. Your DP can tell his DD about words that he doesn't like her using by saying "We don't use words like that here" when she says them.
But the alcohol is more worrying.

I did a rendition of Big Spender age 11 at school. Thought the teacher was going to have heart failure !!!!
My 5 yr old is singing 'I don't need a man' found on Youtube whilst looking for Disney princess songs !

StealthPolarBear · 07/04/2014 21:21

Ludways I dont thibk thats too bad. Loads of songs have meanings that fo over children's heads. I used to love relax, chain reaction etc

fifi669 · 07/04/2014 21:21

DP asked his ex directly if she drank at Christmas as her and her mum used to give alcohol to the much younger brother. She said DD helped herself but it was ok as she wasn't drunk or anything.

He's spoken to ex about the swearing etc too. She says she's told her swearing is bad but refuses to stop her watching/listening to songs or watching things like walking dead

Well that's awful. Neglect imo

LizzieMint · 07/04/2014 21:26

No, YANBU, but jesus, letting a 3 year old drink alcohol?! Much worse, IMO. And illegal too.

LittleprincessinGOLDrocks · 07/04/2014 21:27

That is awful. Has your DP looked in to taking more care of his DD?
I think he needs to be doing more than just talking to her mum. Giving alcohol to such a young child can have awful affects on her little body. There is no excuse for that, it is very bad parenting.
Your DP needs to protect his DD from the possible harm she might be coming to.

fifi669 · 07/04/2014 21:35

The problem is that she allows him 2 hours contact at present. It's been varying between 45 minutes and 6 hours (that was for a month or so) since they split 3 years ago. He's tried mediation but everytime he starts the process, she stops contact, months pass and by the time they're seen the mediator agrees with her he has to build up contact..... Which happens until she doesn't like something, cuts contact..... Repeat. Sigh. He's got the papers ready for court. In all likelihood he'll get a day at best.

Well this cany continue
she willl damage her liver
god knowd what is happening tp her brain

fifi669 · 07/04/2014 21:40

She's an intelligent little girl, leaps and bounds ahead of my DS who is the same age. I think the ex sees this as her being grown up?
