My dd has recently become OBSESSED with Peppa Pig, that squeaky, communist swine voice is driving me crazy! She's becoming more and more bossy, rude, and emotionally abusive. She always says that she doesn't want me to kiss her goodnight only daddy, because she is angry with me over my dislike to this T.V. show. Peppa Pig is ruining my life! Also whenever I bring friends round they end up watching it too!! Angry. SOS

I say no to programmes I dont like it soon gets accepted if you dont let them watch it....the I want daddy is a normal stage she would say that for any excuse so dont feel bad.

Your young dd is emotionally abusive and Peppa Pig is communist?? Confused

Ostryga · 26/01/2021 16:44

Can you get her into Ben and Holly? Voiced by many of the same characters, but is hilarious. Nanny Plum is who I aspire to be.

SmidgenofaPigeon · 26/01/2021 16:54

I’m so interested to know how Peppa Pig is a communist.

Brieminewine · 26/01/2021 16:56

You’re blaming Peppa pig on your kid being bossy rude and emotionally abusive??

Maybe turn the telly off and read a couple parenting books Grin

Maybe just turn it off OP?

Horehound · 26/01/2021 17:15

So don't let her watch TV? Sounds like it's your fault. You are the parent Confused

AutoIncorrect · 26/01/2021 17:16

Loooool

BilboBercow · 26/01/2021 17:16

Has Peppa seized the means of production? The only person you ever see working in Peppa is Miss Rabbit.

There will always be programmes/ other children at school that will influence our children in ways we disagree. We need to teach them to not copy bad behaviour/what bad behaviour is. We can't switch off other children we may not like at school.

AwkwardAsAllGetout · 26/01/2021 17:22

Where are you that friends are allowed round to watch tv anyway??

jannier · 26/01/2021 20:36

@bertiebottseveryfalvourbeans
Good question.

Aimee1987 · 26/01/2021 20:39

I agree that peppa pig is a spoilt little brat however if any form of TV is having a negative impact on a child ( especially one young enough to watch peppa pig) then turn it off.

Merename · 26/01/2021 20:40

Lolz at you putting this under childcare options. Peppa is awful and I banned it with my first then got sucked in all over again with DD2. Also intrigued by her communist leanings? I just think she’s a brat and the crap attempts at reverse sex stereotyping do not work well.

mynameiscalypso · 26/01/2021 20:41

I'd recommend staying well away from Bing if you have such strong feelings about Peppa

Yolanda524 · 26/01/2021 20:43

I don’t like pepper pig either she is a brat. If you have Disney+ put on Bluey it’s a lovely little cartoon for preschoolers

WhatsYourNameMan · 26/01/2021 20:47

We live Peppa Pig here, maybe we're all brats. It makes us laugh. My DD is bossy and rude but I'm almost certain that's because she's 2.5... Confused

I do draw the line at Bing, he is an actual psychopathic murderer enabled by total weirdos around him.

rhowton · 26/01/2021 20:49

I love Peppa Pig as a programme! Peppa is a bit bossy and annoying, but I have a 3 year old, who is just like her. I don't like how mean they are to Daddy Pig, but he often brings it on himself by bigging himself up so much! I feel each and ever eye roll Mummy pig! I also laugh at every episode: my favourites episodes are the Australia episode with the boomerang and Grammy Rabbit and the cheese! Honestly, give it a bit of time.

rhowton · 26/01/2021 20:49

Stray away from Bing! He's an absolute prick!

rhowton · 26/01/2021 20:50

@WhatsYourNameMan your description of Bing is bang on 😂

Dozer · 26/01/2021 20:53

Grin Love the OP title: Peppa Pig would indeed be a v annoying childcare provider!

WhatsYourNameMan · 26/01/2021 20:53

The one where Bing murders a butterfly with his bare hands and the freaks around him are just like 'aww never mind Bing, let's bury it for LOLZ'

Shock

My favourite PP episode is the countries of the world one. Germany is playing hopscotch. Japan and America are playing in the sandpit. France is on the swing with Italy. Grin

mynameiscalypso · 26/01/2021 20:57

Every time I watch Bing (which is, sadly, multiple times a day at the moment), I notice something else that annoys me. Today it was the fact that when they cross the road, they had to wait for the 'green bunny' at the crossing but there are all sorts of different animals crossing the road. Why do they just have traffic lights for bunnies?

Horehound · 26/01/2021 23:04

Actually I do fucking hate Bing.

Uft.
