Bratz

6yo dd is begging for Bratz stuff, "all my friends have them".

I've said no as they look horrible, too much makeup, hooker clothes, etc.

Am I been unreasonable and out of touch or am I right to say no?

I will say no. They look like sluts. You are right.

right with you. tell that to my MIL, though!

No Bratz in this hourse either. We have Barbie, etc. but hate Bratz. Luckily 5yo DD also thinks they are ugly, even though her friends do have them.

I prefer them to poncey wussy Barbie with her unattainable body shape.

Not unreasonable at all, horrible name, horrible toys.
I brainwashed my dd into hating them.

I said no for ages but somehow they still got them! When other people buy them I find it impossible to say 'no' then.
At least Barbie has a career though, rather than just Rock Angel Prom Queen Hooker Bratz!
Have you seen the cartoon! With Byron Powell (really) as a music mogul, boys, cars, fashion mags, and OMG don't even start me on the Babyz and Ponyz and whatever the hell else they do!

I said no to DD also 6 but she got 2 fro her recent birthday

She was delighted!

I hate them and have always refused to buy any Bratz stuff for DD1 (9). However, her dear stepmother buys her Bratz stuff ALL the time (the woman is not known for her taste). Sure she only does it becaused she suspects I won't like it .

I think I have won dd over though as she had loads of Bratz stuff from said stepmother for her birthday just gone and she was seriously underwhelmed - said she doesn't like them anymore.

Bratz are Slutz.

Completely agree with you. Hoping my daughter won't get one for her 6th this week, have even said to a parent who was asking for ideas for a present 'NO Bratz please'
