Ugh - DD is driving me crazy. All day long, she's talking about the same four topics - Disney princesses (primarily what they are wearing), her desire to wear her hair down or get bangs, wanting to watch a Barbie movie, and the new sparkly shoes she wants for spring. It's driving me crazy! I feel like I spend all of this time trying to expose her to interesting, intelligent and fun topics - and it's all going in one ear and out the other. I'm worried about her intellectual curiosity! Is this a phase? Anyone else go through this?

It's a phase. They're not exactly interested in world politics now. We come out of the womb superficial, the maturation process will help us realize there is more to life. Don't force it. They are more instinctive than you think, they know when you are "lecturing" even when you sugar coat it. HTH and I hope it's over soon :)
