Barbie and Ken…all is right!

I was folding clothes the other day when I overheard the girls talking. They were coloring in a Barbie book and it went kind of like this…

Juliane: Geez. Barbie gets divorced a lot!

Hannah: She what? Aborse?

Juliane: NO! Divorce! She marries a lot of boys.

Hannah: I not know that.

So I enter and ask Jude why she thinks that, because Hannah obviously isn’t in the know

Juliane: Because she’s always breaking up with a boy and going with another one. First she’s with Ken, then she divorces him, now she is with this one. Then on the movies she’s with other boys….she gets divorced a lot!

(she was coloring in a Barbie book and different pages had different guys with Barbie)

I explained to them that Barbie is the “family name” and there are many Barbies in the family. So Barbie isn’t a hussy dating all kinds of boy dolls.

Juliane: Well that makes sense!

Thank the good Lord she was satisfied with that one!

I had to tell you first off – your family is beautiful!

I love that you went in (after listening – not eavesdropping – I have to keep telling myself that with my 12 year old) to explain. I do think it's interesting how children can connect dots on their own (whether accurate or not). Is Barbie a hussie though? I think that should be your next post! :-)

Hello fellow SITSta! I need your help!

Could you vote for me in Iron Cupcake?

(I am campaigning for votes….because I put a lot of time and effort into this)

If there is anything I can do for you in the future don’t hesitate to ask!
