I'm so embarrassed and upset... I posted a comment on the pic of Heath and Abbey that Monster High Dolls put up. I wrote about how much I love them. I guess my mom saw that I "liked" the photo or something and went over to see it and commented on it, saying "Don't buy these for your kids". Yes. She posted that on a Monster High Dolls photo. I'm 28 and I haven't lived at home for four years, and my mom is still trying to take a big old dump on anything/everything I like that she happens to disapprove of. And in a public place devoted to the dolls she apparently dislikes, no less. I grew up feeling somewhat ashamed of many of the things I liked because SHE didn't like them and went out of her way to express that to me. I thought I was free from that now. I guess this just triggered me... Excuse me while I die of embarrassment.
Not a huge fan of the GNO dolls besides Rochelle!
*snip* I'm curious: is there anyone who likes GNO Lagoona?
Dern, Toysrus didn't have the werecat 3 pack. Hubby saw the scaris cleo+lagoona set, but he was like "I'm not getting you a set if you don't like one of the dolls, that's just silly." Next week we'll go back to see if they have the 3 pack, maybe he'll change his mind on the scaris set because I keep talking about those beautiful octopus accessories!Something about Lagoona bugs me....probably her goat eyes. They are so stinkin far apart and bugged out! o _ o
I've heard similar statements like yours a few times now and I'm curious: is there anyone who likes GNO Lagoona?
I agree about lagoona. She just always has this blank expression on her face. I feel like the other ghouls are a lot more expressive and have more character. Some of Rochelle's dolls have weird facial expressions to me too.
Urgh, that sucks. I think parents who try to passiv-agressively guilt-trip their kids are a pain in the ***.I'm lucky to have parents who always approved of the toys I wanted (even when I suddenly started to collect them again as an adult, haha), but I know a lot of people who get crap for their completely harmless love for nice looking toys and/or collectors items and it makes me shake my head so hard.Should I ever have children, I will be glad if they find joy in something harmless instead of, you know, violence and drugs?
I want to like her comment & say, "Yeah! More for me!" I'd do it just to tick her off, even though I might get flamed.
*hugs* I'm always saddened to read things like this at the arena. Even while you're upset, I'm sure there's a part of you that knows that you don't need her permission to like things, so listen to it! So many people put themselves through misery trying to please their parents, and it's not worth it - your life is no more or less successful for having your parents give the thumbs up. You could always say to her: 'That's just, like, your opinion and stuff'. Always silences my mother!
You should post the link to the photo and get everyone to troll her and and see how she reacts. "You raise your kids the way you want, but don't tell everyone else what to buy and what not to buy for our children""More for us!""Why are you telling us what to not buy if you don't like them??"lead the way and the piranha will follow. lol jk, that's too mean.
