Can I stop my daughter listening to this ludicrous song?

Hello mums

A very confused mum here!

My daughter is obsessed with this "Christmas song" ()

The main lyric is Santa Likes Them (Ho Ho Ho's).

She's too young to know the meaning, and obviously the video doesn't really give the meaning away - its just a couple of people having fun! Ergh! Angry

Has anyone got experience with stopping a child listening to music? Xmas Confused

Er, you say no?

Woohoo1 · 24/12/2018 18:12

I used to sing along to Relax as a small child, no idea of the meaning!! Not done me any harm. If you stop her she will want to listen to it more

Turn YouTube off.

A child with excellent taste elite Xmas Wink

Worried if your DC is old enough to be Blush then sing along . Really belt out the toon

If not , then thank your lucky stars she's not into "Blurred Lines"

That song is awful -but in a funny sort of way!

Just listened to it and DS (3yo) pricked up at "Santa's got no presents" -"No presents!" When I ended the video he asked for it again. Oh dear!

@TenForward82 @Believeitornot I wish it was that easy! The more I say no, the more she wants it! Xmas Angry

@Woohoo1 I hope my daughter says the same thing in the future ha!

@elitesquad oh so lucky!

@70isalimitnotatarget Can you imagine if she was into Blurred Lines - I don't think my heart would be able to take it! lol

@jennybluewren oh god! That had me laughing! Grin

My dd is 7 and would watch YouTube all day if I let her! I’ve had many chats about what’s appropriate and she knows what she is and isn’t allowed to watch. I monitor it closely and will turn it off if it’s inappropriate .

SaraIsWorried · 26/12/2018 17:39

Its so hard to monitor YouTube! You'd think a song like that would be 18+ on YouTube!

My 3 yo is sing a combination of songs from the greatest showman.

So it's like this

Ooh ooh ooh oooh ooh
Di di di di

This is me
This is the greatest show

Rewrite the stars

All sang on her keyboard that was given to her by fecking Santa.

At least she's not listening to Hardstyle or Psytrance.
