HelpRe: Did it bother you if you couldn't get things with your name on growing up?
in reply to a message by Kerrin
When I was growing up, the fashion of kids having their names on t-shirts, bags, etc was already fading fast due to the fact that it's not too smart to allow just anybody who can read to speak to a child by name and thereby convince them that they aren't strangers. There were still personalized things available, but obviously not with Starla on them.
It didn't bother me. You can still get personalized shirts or coffee mugs or whatnot and if you don't see your name, there's no shortage of places to get them custom-lettered. A couple years ago I saw somebody in the mall doing these wooden nameplate things, like to put over top of a door, and all of those were made to order and very cheap. (They looked kinda cheap too, actually, but if I was a kid with my own room I would have liked to have one, probably.)
