Kids in a private elementary school were asked a series of
questions then Shown tow dolls, a realistic one and a classic doll. As they
looked at the realistic doll many of them commented how pretty she was and how
she resembled their relatives and in some cases themselves. When asked about
the life of this doll verses a classic one many of them said she looked like
she could be a teacher or a pilot as opposed to fashion star.
I think it’s about time that a realistic
doll was marketed. Our childhoods greatly affect our futures and if more little
girls focused on fantasies such as becoming a teacher not a fashion star they
would accomplish more. These girls can’t achieve all their fantasies when they
are trying to be someone unobtainable and someone so very unhealthy.
