Do certain children's toys create social or emotional or other problems?


Let’s use Barbie for an example of a toy that causes problems for children. She has big blond hair, a fit body, and big eyes, wears make-up and even has body parts of a grown female adult. Now what is the problem here? I think you have a clue. Barbie Dolls set off the wrong meaning for children, especially for little girls. I think Barbie make girls want to grow up faster instead of wanting to enjoy the moment of just being a kid. Though Barbie isn’t the only toy that is related to this subject, the Disney princess’s dolls also set off the wrong signals for young girls. Little girls shouldn’t have to worry about the way they look. They should really love the way they are, without comparing themselves to fictional characters and toys.
