Recently, Rebecca went to a birthday party. I agreed to pick a couple of her friends up and take them home after the party. On the way home, they all sat in the back and were playing with the little pretend phones they had gotten as party favors. Now, you should know something about Rebecca. I don't let her watch the "tween" shows like Jonas Brothers, High School Musical, iCarly, etc. It's not that I really object to them, but they do deal with some "teenage" issues like dating, having boyfriends/girlfriends, etc. I just don't think Rebecca is old enough to really be saavy on these issues. She is only six, afterall.
Anyway, so she and her friends were in the back seat pretending to call people. One friend said, "I'm going to call Joe," and the other one said, "I'm going to call Nick." and Rebecca joins in and says, "I'm going to call the other one." She didn't have a clue what their names were. Which was really okay with me but was pretty funny.
Then, they started in on, "I just called Joe and he says he wants to marry me." and they would all laugh and giggle. Another one says, "well I just talked to Nick and he says he wants to kiss me." And they all giggled and laughed. Rebecca says, "I just talked to Kevin (they had educated her on all the right names), and he says he wants to marry me. I'm going to put it on my facebook page."
I suddenly knew I had a problem. lol. Okay, so does she know all about facebook because she's of the techno generation or because her mom is on it too much. Surely the first one, right?

That's funny. We started on those tween shows around the age of 7 for AB..probably shouldn't have. I didn't really want to-just kind of happened. Good for you.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's totally b/c she's of the techno generation! ;)
