Princess on Board signs. WHY? WHY? WHY?

[fillyjonk]

etc

please justify

You can get a 'Baby, I'm Bored' one - can't remember where.

Ok people, i have seen the matching 'princess on board' sunshades around now, are they acceptable as they are serving a purpose????

if i ever have a girl (and how dare you forbid it) she will be highly unlikely to be dressed in pink until she can afford her own clothes. acksherly.

The accepted story about the origin of these signs is not quite true...

nothing with princess on is ever acceptable

Babies, I wasn't saying god forbid you should ever have a girl (blimey!!) I was saying god forbid you should ever have a girl who has a fierce determination to wear pink every day!!

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding!

You wait though - the pink will come seeping in to her wardrobe little by little... (mwah hah hah!)

Never!!!

i shall forbid it. and withold food if she dares mention it!!

Why otter? what is wrong with the word princess...i am definately missing something here. I can see that the signs are pointless, but what is wrong with the word princess?

In my mind, "princess" is interchangable with "spolit little brat".

I sort of agree with otter here, whilst my dd is my absolute pride and joy, I would never call her a princess.

My experience of little girls called "princess" is that they are little madams who rule the roost

But you said it rather more tactfully

So if i was to buy something for my dd with princess on she would turn into a spoilt brat?....haha

excellent!

yes

my dd2 had a t shirt when she was 1 that said "i did not ask to be a princess....but if the crown fits" i loved it, my dh calls both dd's princess and i dress them head to toe in pink all the time

I remember a man telling me that he had just bought his "Princess" a pink Jeep for her seventeenth birthday... it meant that among many other things he had to sacrifice the family holiday for it.

"But what can you do" mooned he.. "she twists me round her little finger."

Yeah right

yup. she would do exactly that if you had a 'youre my little princess' attitude (and therefore bought the princess crapola for her.

well, you asked!

i'm gonna give it a try, what about 'fairy princess' is that even worse??? what will happen????

can I just add, I am a real tom boy so cant imagine dd ever wanting princessy things or pink things, but watch this space...........

i had the baby on board t shirt

for the fact i wanted people to no i was ;pregant not just fat

Found the alternative 'Baby, I'm Bored' one: www.pedlars.co.uk/page_343.html

After 6 boys my dd has pink everything. And she just loves the princess' (snow white etc)

I am DOOMED!!!!!!

ewww LadyM. and i bet she spent her whole life trying to find a man jusr like daddy to marry. bleeeuuurgh

Oooh, Filly... I got BabyDragon a cream T shirt with a pink glittery monkey on it and the phrase "cheeky monkey". I was delighted I'd been tempted to get her a boy on because she is a cheeky monkey. She's no princess, that's for sure.

do people care?
