To sue the company who makes peppa pig

[po8jte]

On Friday, my 10-year-old son jumped in a muddy puddle and got mud in my eye, all over his school uniform, all over the car, and all over the porch. He also threw his 23-year-old sibling’s CV out of the window as a paper airplane, which he had made a long time ago, causing delays in their job search. He has been saying that I have a big tummy, which has hurt my feelings, and was refusing to get out of the car after we drove home from school. Most times when I ask why he does these things, he says things like "Peppa Pig does it," "Peppa Pig did it," "George did it," or "George Pig does it." I have noticed that he has been displaying all this behavior after watching Peppa Pig.

Could be worse. Ds2 was a Scooby Doo fan. He’s also autistic. We had a phase where almost everything he said was a direct quote from the programme. “No more Mr Nice Guy” was his response to most things he was asked to do.

@po8jte he will grow out of Peppa Pig and move on to worse. Enjoy muddy puddles while it lasts.

Wasn’t there a post exactly like this a few weeks ago?

I am suspicious as op is not back yet.

Maybe she's busy consulting with her solicitor..

If serious - have you had your son assessed for SN?

This is why that pig is banned in my house. She's so naughty and a bad influence!

I watched Roadrunner and have never dropped an anvil on a coyote’s head, never mind a wily one.

Hilarious do it , some people
on here actually think you are serious 😂

Does your son have SEN or learning disabilities? If not why is he still watching and being influenced by Peppa Pig? Surely that's for toddlers?

This is the most WTF thing I have ever read on this forum

Peppa Pig and the several episodes shown in succession without ads, was a blissful chance for me to doze off for 15 minutes while little DD cuddled up to me and watched completely spellbound.

switch to Bluey

Yes but then you get the Aussie accent and "Biscuits" muttered all the time.

Pretty much this.
If he was 3 or 4, or even possibly 5 or 6 I could understand it.
But 10?

Nip this in the bud. He's old enough to know better unless there's something else at play.

Why does a 10 year old watch peppa pig

Sounds like a naughty kid. Time to sort him out and stop blaming Peppa Pig. How ridiculous

What 10-year old watches Peppa Pig???????

This is clearly a joke. Are people taking it seriously?! 😂😂🙈

I’d 💯 sue, let us know if you’re successful 🙂

Agree. Peppa was vile to George. She was also rude and genuinely unpleasant.

Now Ben and Holly on the other hand.. ❤️🤗

He’s 10! A 2 year old might not understand how those behaviours are wrong but a 10 year old does. Stop letting him watch it if he copies the behaviour. Parent your child instead of complaining

Is this a joke? Why is your ten year old watching a toddler programme? Do some parenting. Switch it off or put something more age appropriate on.

I swear I read this same post the other day, minus the CV aeroplane bit

Imagine admitting you are a crap parent with a spoilt kid and then trying to blame a Tv programme that you let them watch.

Obviously this is BS but I have heard many parents use all sorts of excuses to justify their lack of parenting over the years.

Yes you should.
I was hit in the face with a frying pan, by a mouse of all things, and now I have flat, frying pan shaped face.
So don't let them watch Tom and Jerry either.
