Well then he stuck to the little girl with a kind of nonsense? I do not quite understand the language, but what happened, she painted doll nail polish? Father himself to blame - no need to throw a nail anywhere. A small child, and suddenly she began to have this nail polish to eat? He chastises her as if she were an adult.

From how I understand it, the little girl painted her doll with the blue nail polish. She said the doll told her to do it over a hundred times. My question is, where was the parents. Nice to know she was supervised. I wasn't allowed nail polish at that age. Go figure.

Guess I missed seeing that movie. Looks like fun.

Well it was aimed at kids. It is well worth watching. I would rate it as one of the best movies I have ever seen. The movie is about the monsters that come out of kids closets at night but told from the point of view of the monsters an their home town.

Pasha, the nail polish is some kind of "toy" nail polish. She was told she could only use it outside, but she painted her doll with it, in her room. I think he recorded that because he thought her story about the doll telling her to do it was funny. But I think he handled it all wrong! Trying to say, "it's not my fault, someone else told me to do it" does not work with me - I'd have told her, "I don't care who told you to do it, it was still wrong, and you knew it was wrong. And since I can't trust you to do what you were told with the nail polish, I will just have to put it away, and only let you use it when I can watch to make sure you are not doing something you shouldn't with it." Or better yet, never have let her have it unsupervised in the first place! But telling her that "if it happens again, I will throw the dolls away" is not good parenting.

I think he went on a little bit too much about it, probably for the video. But I think he got her to understand not to paint on her dolls. She had been told not to use her polish in the house, only outside. But she colored her doll alll over the body. I actually believe that dad handled this well. Just didn't need to go on so long about it. He said ok, at the end, and said, I love you. My husband and I always told our children that we loved them after getting after them for something. Guess that's the part I thought was good of the Father.


And, good for you .. you read a lot! And have your own library. I think it's cute that you have parsley...everywhere!

Your English is very good!

Not this orange yet in the valleys, but it's coming. Quite chilly this morning. I understand that it's approaching freezing in some parts of the upper East Coast. Burr....

Quote: If you listen to them carefully, the only thing the little girl agreed to do was to tell the dolls "no" if they tell her to paint them - which she claimed to have done in the first place (100 times!) She didn't say she wouldn't use the nail polish in the house, even though she knew she shouldn't. So if next week, she decides to use the nail polish on her stuffed animal, a child this creative could legitimately argue that she did tell the doll "no," but she had made no promises about the animals . . . .

What he needed to do was control the child's use of the nail polish, not the dolls - which I why I find fault with his technique.

Personally my dad would have whooped on me for claiming my dolls told me to do it in the first place.

Do you suppose when she's too old to play with dolls, she'll listen to the voices in her head?

And yeah, I would have been in serious trouble and punished for fibbing.

That's exactly what I thought! A future schizophrenic.
