At eleven years old, I was playing with barbie dolls, playing momma and poppa, house, tag- and I bet'ya that if the Bratz dolls were around when I was eleven I'd be playing with them, too. So, it is normal to play with these toys. Your mom teases you because she didn't get a chance to play with such fun stuffs when she was a little girl, and she has definitely forgotten how it was to be eleven years old. Your sister's friends tease you because they didn't get the opportunity to be the "baby" who got spoiled with all the fun toys.
Have fun with your toys while you still can and grow up to be a better person than your mom and your sisters friends.

I am sorry to hear that your mother is teasing you for playing with dolls at your age when she should be thankful and praising you because it shows that you a creative, artistic person with a great imagination.
What you Mom also needs to realize is that the way older adults use language, younger adults use play and it is a way for them to work out there everyday problems using play.
I am originally from a very small town that had nothing to do and I played with dolls of all kinds up until I was in Jr. High School as it was a positive outlet for my creativity and helped me work through everyday problems through the play with the dolls. Other girls my age that were just as bored turned to drugs, alcohol and sex, some getting pregnant and never finishing high school, whereas I went on to graduate college.
Perhaps the older sister posting this question can have a talk with your mother to let her know how much the teasing is hurting you and to be more considerate of your feelings. Who knows, you could end up being the next Stephen Spielberg as you will have had lots of practice by directing your "talent", the dolls.

No, don`t worry about that. Some adults grow up without enjoying the beauty and fun of child stuff.
Live the moment and relax! Sooner or later, you`ll see. Change is the only thing permanent, but take your time to enjoy what is in the NOW!
P.S. I am 27 yrs old and would like to play with you (hehe!)

it fairly is a easy side of being a enjoyed ones, is teasing.. You extremely can not take it to heavily and you'd be able to desire to start teasing your sister over silly stuff additionally.. yet frequently concerns are taken to a techniques and a few days you in basic terms do no longer think of like coping with crap.. On on the 2d you in basic terms separate your self from it and pass cool down.. circulate on your room and grasp a e-e book or watch television.. or perhaps pass take a extreme-high quality long tub.. in the event that they ask why you in basic terms tell them your now no longer feeling nicely. in the event that they recognize that the teasing is bothering you it is going to strengthen extra..

Don't worry you are normal. It seems to me tha your mom and her friends are the ones that need to grow up. You are only 11, it is okay to play with Bratz and Barbie Dolls at your age.
Try to ignore them when they tease you, and try not to let it bother you are get you down.

Maybe your mom's just wishing she could play with stuff like that!!! Sounds like your mom should act like a mom instead of trying to look big in front of her friends. There's nothing wrong with playing and using your imagination. Also, I'd ask her what's the difference between that and grown women collecting porcelain dolls?

there is no normal! everyone is unique in their own way. i still like to hug my stuffed dog and talk to it as if it were alive and im also eleven!
that is very wrong of your mom. try talking to her about it. tell her everything because she is your mom. if she just teases you more then talk to your dad about it. if that doesnt work then just ignore everyone and concentrate on whatyou like. concentrate on being happy and healthy and a good person. you will make many friends and they will be very willing to help you. if you dont then just be happy for being alive. and always remember that god loves you and he made everyone different and they all have their own strengths. if you do this then you will succeed and then you can tease your mom when you become president because she had such a horrible job and you were always better than her!!!
my life used to be like that but i just concentrated on school and now i have a whole gang of friends and my mom respects me for who i am because i won so many writing awards!
you can do it!

It is so normal. You should tell your mother and her friends that nothing is wrong with playing with dolls. You should also tell them that you are bored sometimes and you don't know what to do. I am the same age as you and I play with them too!!! Don't be embarrassed.

I agree with my SIL drewsilla01. Your mom is the one who needs to grow up. I have a daughter who is not much younger that you, and she still plays with all of that stuff. My daughter also has allot of older friends, and they also enjoy that type of play. They need to lay off.
