She’s a sassy, assertive, and independent girlie who knows what she wants. But, is Peppa Pig turning kids into spoiled brats? Some parents seem to think so… as well as fearing she’s changing their nationality.
It’s been almost 20 years since Peppa oinked onto our screens and she’s still as popular as ever, having made a name for herself around the world.
She’s even attracted celebrity cameos, with US singer Katy Perry having voiced her own character recently.
However, the outgoing preschool pig has learned that fame comes with a price, as American parents in particular aren’t massive fans of her behaviour.
So much so, that they’ve started complaining about the influence Peppa is having over their kids.
Some have reported that their American children have picked up British accents and mannerisms, and they’ve even started substituting their American words for British terms.
For example, they might say ‘biscuits’ instead of ‘cookies.’
lol.
