[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the Barbie haters.. we got one of the cheaper barbies for DD for Christmas. She’s dressed like a doctor and has a totally different “shape” than traditional Barbie. DD thinks she’s great. There are so many Barbie options now. [b]Adults need to stop projecting their toy issues on their kids.[/b] They aren’t getting body image issues because of Barbie. They’re getting body issues because of adult messages about bodies. [/quote] This statement sums up this entire thread. I don’t have boys, but I do have girls and the hours & hours of joy and pretend play my girls got from Barbies is priceless. They prefer brown-haired or darker skinned Barbies. Lots of choices now. But, go on. Give your kid an iPad instead. [/quote] :shock: not having Barbie doesn’t mean no dolls at all. Calm down or does Mattel own pretend play exclusively? [/quote]
