I have no idea which one.it is though.</p> <p>At this point, I think the only way to unravel things is for one of the parties involved to release the legal documents and emails that have gone back and forth. Then people can determine for themselves who is telling the truth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-977074 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 02:09:45 +0000 erinpye 977074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Team Honest Toddler 100%. THC is being absolutely ridiculous and dishonest in the whole matter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975492 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 12:16:55 +0000 BSB 975492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just on Honest Toddler's FB page, HT said she would have signed a Non Compete but Honest Company never sent one. Instead they want to take all things 'Honest' from world. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975471 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 12:13:20 +0000 mrsjazz 975471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: I think right now it's he said, she said. </p> <p>"April 2, 2013: U.S. Patent Trademark Office finds that Honest Toddler’s trademark is not confusing with any current marks, grants preliminary approval, and publishes the mark." I don't see why there would be any trademark issues if the USPTO granted preliminary approval.</p> <p>This is HT's side of the story:<br /> <a href="http://bunmiladitan.wordpress.com/2013/07/30/honest-company-timeline-of-events/" rel="nofollow">http://bunmiladitan.wordpress.com/2013/07/30/honest-company-timeline-of-events/</a></p> <p>I'm Team Honest Toddler :)</p> <p>ETA: This from Bunmi's website:</p> <p>Myth: The Honest Toddler trademark is in a class that would be confusing with the marks owned by Honest Company</p> <p>FACT: The Honest Toddler’s mark is in a trademark class specifically for media and entertainment, which is fitting for a mom blogger. All but one of Honest Company’s trademarks are in different trademark classes. Their only mark in the same class as The Honest Toddler is HonestBaby, which they purchased from a mom blogger in 2012, but do not use in commerce. If searched, the link simply re-directs consumers to The Honest Company’s main page </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975436 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 12:05:12 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 975436@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is so ugly playing out in the public. I am not in vested in either brand and hope they resolve this without damaging tgeir brands further. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975306 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 11:34:26 +0000 LuLu Mom 975306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm Team Honest Toddler, Honest Company didn't seem to have a problem with them 2 years ago when they promoted their blog, so the fact that with popularity they decided they are a threat is BS to me. It doesn't sound like Honest Toddler wants to overtake HC or their business, so why not co-exist? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975282 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 11:28:57 +0000 Sophia 975282@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm team Honest Toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975278 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 11:27:35 +0000 T.H.O.U. 975278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: how will this impact their trademark? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975197 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 11:05:42 +0000 BSB 975197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Thanks for posting the link. Great link. I was wondering what HT had to say about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975180 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 10:59:34 +0000 mrbee 975180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Did you see the Honest Company's response here?<br /> <a href="http://honesttoddler.com/" rel="nofollow">http://honesttoddler.com/</a></p> <p>They said that the Honest Toddler founder had reached a verbal agreement with them around how to handle things, and then she didn't follow through. If that's true (and I don't know if there's any way to confirm things either way), then I am totally on team Honest Company. They have to protect their trademark, or they will lose it... that's just the way that trademarks work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975179 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 10:59:27 +0000 regberadaisy 975179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: oops, thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975155 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 10:52:09 +0000 BSB 975155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on team Honest Toddler!</p> <p>Oh, there was a thread started a few days ago about this. </p> <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/honest-diapers-vs-honest-toddler" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/honest-diapers-vs-honest-toddler</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-honest-debate-wdyt#post-975140 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 10:48:38 +0000 regberadaisy 975140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone else following along with the Honest Company vs Honest Toddler issue?</p> <p>I'm honestly kinda annoyed at Honest Co about this. Really, the parent that cares enough to buy organic is educated enough on the subject to not confuse the two in my opinion.</p> <p>Here's an interesting post by Honest Toddler blogger, Bunmi.<br /> <a href="http://bunmiladitan.wordpress.com/2013/07/30/honest-company-timeline-of-events/" rel="nofollow">http://bunmiladitan.wordpress.com/2013/07/30/honest-company-timeline-of-events/</a></p> <p>And I may be wrong, but hasn't Honest Toddler been around long before The Honest Company?</p> <p>Just doesn't seem right that they are flexing their corporation muscles against a small mom blogger. </p> <p>I'm disappointed in Jessica Alba. </p>
