The proper response to children dissing Prince is, "Go to your room right now...and just think about what you said. And don't come out until you can apologize!"    My little beauties would n't dare, but if they did..
i'm sure as hell gonna take ur advice!!! Sometimes it frightens me how much I sound like my mother.  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

 Second I have my nine year old brother into Prince, not the way that I'm into him but he likes him and dances off of his music! My 3yr old and 1yr old nephews when I point to a picture of Prince and say "this is uncle Prince" all they do is  .  so cute and gullible!  That is sweet!  Uncle Prince. Yeah! Those r my boys! surviving on the thought of loving you, it's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years... | |

Last night my 13-year-old son insisted we watch "Happy Feet" and that I would love it. I know he did this solely because of the Prince songs in the movie.
I thought that was awful nice of him. | |

I thought that was awful nice of him. Yeah, kids can be sweet sometimes. He new you'd like the penguins singing "Kiss" and, of course, there's "The Heart Song". Good movie. With that movie I've introudced my 8 year old daughter to Earth Wind and Fire, Stevie Wonder, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Queen, etc...Of course she already knows of Prince and dances to "The Heart Song" when the credits roll.  | |

Sounds pretty accurate to me. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

the usual reply i give to the old "he dresses like a girl" line is "so?"
it usually shuts them up | |

Why would you argue about Prince with children. Just look at the music they are exposed to these days. There is absolutely no way they will understand so the arguement is hopeless and pointless. Hell, there are very few people in their 20s that I will argue about Prince, or music in general, with. Andy is a four letter word. | |

I have a 2 year old and a 3 year old and they are all about Prince. They love to DVD Rave which I find my kids dancing and singing to the songs. Yesterday on our way home my son is singing shes always in my hair. Last night my daughter (2 years old) say out of no where I want to move to live with Prince and my surprise my son turned around and said I want to live in a city with Prince. Yes, I love Prince but I think they are more into Prince then I. Randy plays(if that is what you call ALOT of noise) drums and guitar because of Prince. My daughter wants to sing. They are over the top. If they want to use him as a mentor I couldn't find anyone better. Prince is a total success and that is want I want for my kids. | |

My 10 year old daughter hates Prince with a passion. I have argued with her about Prince being a better "musician" than Gwen Stefani, which she doubts!
On the other hand, my 14 year old son likes some Prince songs, and even has them on his Myspace account, which his other friends hassle him about. I've got a picture of him wearing my Purple Rain shirt, which he posted, and his "friends" said it was stupid. | |

My sister bought five copies of the Mail On Sunday, in order to sell the Planet Earth CDs on eBay and make a quick profit... Well, she never sold them in the end, as hundreds of the discs were only selling for a few pounds each.
So, my sister ended up with a copy of Planet Earth in nearly every room of her house and one in her car... As a result of this Prince saturation, my nine-year old niece has become a fan! Her favourite song is 'Guitar' and my brother-in-law said that she even does the Guitar dance, pretending to play her leg (like The Twinz). He had to tell her not to do the Guitar dance whilst she was in the front seat of their car as it looked weird and was slightly dangerous whilst he was driving. | |

 What were your thoughts on Boy George at that time? | |
