Prinsesa
Every little girl wants to be a princess growing up. We always get told by our fathers how special or beautiful we are, although this may not be the case for everyone. For most people, the word “princess” may not carry a deep meaningful thought, but to me it does. This may be due to the lack of my father never calling me “prinsesa,” instead my mother was the one to call me that as a way to show and tell me that I was special and loved. She may have started to say it so I didn’t feel any less loved compared to my brothers. She also knew my dad’s side of the family never liked me and she did not want me to feel left out.

My mother and father split up when I was about twelve years old. As most children do, I wondered if it was because of me or something I had done. When I grew up I understood that it wasn’t me, and I realized why he never called me “prinsesa.” This was partially his mother 's fault, Catherine. Catherine was nothing like Carmelina. Catherine never wanted him to marry or get with my mother, so she always tried to make up stories and find a way to have them separated. One of the biggest things Catherine told my father was that my mother cheated on him, which is something my beloved mother would never do because it’s against her beliefs. Sadly, Reynaldo believed Catherine and he kept insisting to my mother that it was true, when it wasn’t. They had several arguments over the topic and Reynaldo would not believe Vilma since he loved Catherine and trusted

    In both “The Princess Paradox” by James Poniewozik and “Cinderella and Princess Culture” by Peggy Orenstein, the princess culture is agreed upon; however, the authors vary their opinions of how the fairytail dream of pink dresses and sparkly crowns came to be. Poniewozik opens up his article by addressing the “kick-ass culture,” while Orenstein focuses on how princesses have diminished the feeling of confidence and independence that young girls should experience. While some may believe that princesses show the younger generation that females possess the ability to accomplish anything a male can, others believe that this trend aggressively encourages the idea of “perfection” in our modern society. Both “The Princess Paradox” and “Cinderella and Princess Culture” discuss the rules and…
