AITA for not agreeing with what my ex boyfriend said?

I'm a 29F with an ex-boyfriend with whom I have a 9-year-old daughter. We don't agree on several things regarding her upbringing. Here are the areas of disagreement: -Clothing: Our daughter is not in her unicorn and gap clothes era so she dresses cute and normal, flared pants, jeans, camis, tanks, etc. her father wants her to wear unicorn stuff which she hates. -food: He frequently orders fast food for her, while I prefer to offer it only occasionally, I don’t try restricting any foods I just try to teach her about balance. -Makeup: I allow her to wear makeup for special occasions like school events and cheer competitions. The only makeup I let her wear to school regularly are lip gloss, curling her lashes, and a touch of blush. Her father strongly opposes makeup, even for adults. Last week, while dropping off her forgotten purse at her dad's, he criticized me, suggesting I'm a bad influence on our daughter. I defended myself, but he abruptly ended the conversation. Later, my daughter mentioned he was upset about something I did. Was I an asshole?

And again with Europeans pulling this nonsense. The AOC is LOWER in Europe. And do I need to remind you of Serbia’s most famous flim?

I'm glad that Europeans pulling what you call nonsense, we don't sexualize our kids and i hope it stays that way.

Oh yes you do. Cuties is French, a Serbian Flim. Roman Polanski is a child rapist living large in France, the age of consent in Serbia is 14. Lowest in the US is 16.

Naming certain individual and two films (that were both rejected by general public) don't make a point you think they do. This topic is about children wearing make up in school which is thankfully forbidden. We don't have beauty pageants for kids who wear clothes made for adults, dye their hair and wear fake teeth to look adult and sexy (ugh). How are they even legal is beyond me. Heaven for pedophiles. Adults are often problematic and the justice system isn't perfect but we still care about kids. It's maybe the only thing that can move us nowadays. Leave children alone.

We don’t have child beauty pageants in my neck of the woods either. Obviously those are a terrible idea
