[quote=Anonymous]I realize there will always be other fads, but there is something insidious about the marketing of the LOL dolls that promotes consumerism (and greed) in young girls. The small ones are relatively inexpensive (around $7), and the fact that they are a surprise (you don't know what you are getting until you open it) makes kids want to keep buying them until they get their favorites. There appear to be dozens of options, and girls will spend considerable time going through the little brochures and discussing which ones they like best. Some are labeled as "rare" or "ultra rare" to make them even more attractive. As a parent, I find that creepy. [/quote]
