Brats are high on my list. Barbie is up there too. I don't like any toy that gives the impression that you need cool clothes and makeup, or in Barbies case, clothes, makeup, convertible, dream home with pool, a winnebego, don't forget the summer house. What happens when you grow up and you don't get all those things that will make your life so perfect? Happiness isn't about getting what you want, it is about wanting what you have.

Toys do not cause self-esteem issues or violence issues...lack of parenting does. I grew up playing cowboys and indians, cops and robbers, etc and I turned out just find...b/c my parents taught me right from wrong and I understood the difference between reality and make-believe. Instead of blaming the toys, blame the parents...it's their responsibility to monitor what their kids do and what toys their kids play with.
GI Joe was my favorite toy growing up...if you watched the cartoon, NO ONE ever actually got shot.

Video games like Gran Theft Auto. It's rated M, but young kids get a hold of these games SO easily. Young ones are very impressionable, and all the violence, language, sex, drugs etc. is simply BAD for them. For some, it's hard to separate a game from reality.

i don't know about toys, but the book 'rainbow fish' is a very good lesson for budding socialist children and of course there is 'dora the explorer' to get the kiddies ready for the hispanic invasion...after all, if our children are going to clean the houses of mexicans someday soon, they had better learn the language!

The REDNECK doll!!!

Pregnant Turleen says such classy phrases as
* "Pour me a double, i´m drinkin´ fer two"
* "If the trailer´s a rockin´, don´t come a knockin´"
* "Look out it´s a twister!"
* "Bubba Junior, get off yer sister!"
---BTW, my kids watched the G.I. Joe cartoons, and not one person died. EVER. I thought it was a good cartoon show, better than the garbage nowadays.
--Plus, now that I see the Bratz dolls, they are MUCH worse than even the redneck doll!

I think the BRATZ dolls are horrible. They look like child prostitutes. Now they came out with baby Bratz that look like mini Jon Benet Ramseys. It looks like the little girls are trying to dress like them .

cheap ones. If your kids want something expensive and you get them the cheap version, they'll never feel right.
