If I'd known then what I do now, I'd have sent out the birth announcement as such:
"Please welcome the newest member of the tribe, 8 pounds even. Nursing like a champ. By the way, it's a girl. Please do not misunderstand this: yes she has a vagina, and no, you may not let her watch Cinderella, Ariel, or Snow White while I'm grocery shopping. And no, you may not get her a giant Barbie head complete with eye shadow and lipstick for her 2nd birthday.
Much Love,
The Proud Parents."

Welcome to the Disney Princess Recovery Program
This site logs the experiences of one parent and my quest to reclaim my daughter's imagination after it was hijacked by Disney Princesses.

I began this blog in April 2010. It was meant to be a 90 day run at recovery. From Disney Princesses.
It's been over 4 years since I first googled "Why the hale are Disney Princesses everywhere?" I found a lot of advertisements for Disney World. And a definition of hale (strong and healthy).
I started writing here and found all sorts of people were asking the same question. Minus hale.
My kid is over the Disney Princesses, but I am into all the stuff I've learned while taking notes and exploring. Now I post whatever catches my mind about: marketing to children, girls, and occasionally squirrels.
