Princess Rant #1

Before I had my daughter, I would chuckle at sarcastic or even rude baby clothes. Then I would think – or sometimes say to my husband – “I will never let my kid wear something like that.” Now that I have a child to clothe, I have to admit that it’s been tempting on occasion. When I saw the onesie at Walmart that said, “Teething bites,” well, not only did I have to agree, but I wanted to wear that shirt myself!

But while some of these shirts (hats, onesies, etc.) are cute and funny, I still don’t think rude statements are appropriate for children to wear. (I imagine this will ensure at least one fight with a teenager down the road – don’t even get me started on the appalling phrases I see teens wearing these days! Hmm…"these days"…how old am I?)

The princess trend is also annoying to me, for reasons I will expound on later, so clothing that combines sarcasm and princess attitude is just too much. Too. Much.
