Dinosaurs have a gender? I’m confused; aren’t there make and female dinos ? Isn’t your MIL aware that’s how procreation works. She needs to get over it and stop making her old dates opinions be forced onto your child

Give that girl some dinos 
Tell your little one that there were plenty of girl Dinos just as there were boy ones so if she want a dino theme then that’s perfectly acceptable! Maybe one day she will want to be a paleontologist; shame on grandma for being close minded and confusing her.

Our 3 year old had a “ donuts and Dino” themed party. There are TONS of girl Dino decorations, and even if there wasn’t, WHO CARES. She’s 5. Paint the wall a plain color, get some Dino decals, curtains and a bed set, when she outgrows it, all you have to do is remove the decals and get new bedding. Easy peasy.

I would forget MIL for now comfort your daughter and get some women you know she looks up to like your friends and stuff to talk to her about how much they would love a dinosaur bedroom and how cool it will be, get her excited for it again and then maybe ask your partner to speak to MIL or you can in a calm way and just explain she upset your child and you would prefer it if she expressed negative opinions away from your child but ultimately its yours and your partners choice

What an UNACCEPTABLE ole’ b1atch !!! Hate those old pompous attitudes. I am an adult collector of 1/6 dolls & furniture bits and I happily let my little boys arrange things. It’s fun & educational inspiring to their creativity. MIL can go get fkd. I would be more determined to do it. Just do it. Don’t consult the old b1tch, discuss it…anything. JUST DO IT 
Girls can like dinosaurs. It’s not just a boy thing. They even make girl themed dino stuff for parties. Show her pictures of female dino diggers and all the cool girl don’t stuff there is and have fun with it.

I loved dinosaurs as a child. I’m also a girl. My parents and grandparents never had an issue with my obsession. Then again, I never had a weirdo grandma like your child. I’d say deck her room out with dinosaurs - she would be the happiest child. Don’t let other opinions affect your child’s passions or interests. Do what is best for your child and tell the weirdo she’s not allowed in your home until she’s a supportive family member.

Decorate your daughters room in a theme she likes. That’s a very antiquated way of looking at things. My youngest daughter loved dinosaurs …… not that it matters, but my youngest is the girliest girl. Amazon has some really cute themed dinosaur decor. More importantly it’s not ok for her to make your daughter feel bad over something she prefers.

They have pink/purple Dino to decorate too nothing wrong to have dinosaurs in girls room.
First of all, mother in law don’t live in your house, she doesn’t pay the bills in your house. Second of all, she isn’t the mother of this child you’re are her mom you do it with her don’t listen to the mother in law. Third, go for it and decorate the dinosaurs. If I was close by I would help you to decorate and put huge smile on your daughter face. Last, if my mother in law see that room is dinosaurs and flipped I would tell her get out and go home til she change her attitude and apologize first.

I wouldn’t approach her. I’d talk to my daughter an tell her that there is nothing wrong with what she likes an that it is acceptable to like dinos. The only one you can get through to is going to be your daughter at the end of the day so just talk to her and let her know that what her grandma said is wrong and not her liking an wanting dinos. Then I would proceed to show my kid the different versions of dino designs such as like what others have already commented above and allow her to choose what she likes best. Then redo the room with out saying a word to your mother in law that way when she comes over she can be surprised by it especially if your daughter chooses any of the above dino themes. Bc not only will you prove her wrong but you’ll also show her that you will not support her lack of understanding that not everything has to gender specific.
