Hi. I want to discuss about the every child's best friend Barbie Dolls. The barbie dolls have been changed past 20 years. Before the barbie dolls were so butiful and decency in their dress and the body. But now, the barbie dolls had become adult. You can see the breast and short dresses like thing. I think it can have huge disturbance in the minds of children specally girls. Since at childhood, i think the barbie dolls are their best frnd and shares their feeling with her. So i had heard with my own ears that one girl of 5 years old, is asking to her mother pointing to the breast of Barbie doll that "Mummy y i dnt hve this thing". I was shocked. I think the manufacture of Barbies should take notice abt it. Cheers.

The manufacture is to know about this problem,and the other hand.
A five year should know his are her body parts too,a mother should teach her child his are her body parts.
Over the years i see a few dolls an not just barbie ,but other doll an they are the basically the same.
But on the other hand a mother should teach her daughter about her body parts.

One of my first dolls to cherish was a barbie doll. Barbie certainly has gone thrugh a lot of transformations over the years. technology ands society and fashion have caught up with her and made her the icon that she is today.

Those Barbie Dolls also adopt to the trends in fashion. Since the fashion for now, calls for mini dress, they garb them in that too.
As to the what was pointed of the Barbie doll, i haven't noticed it, even from before. I haven't seen a Barbie doll now, because my daughter is already a lady. Her Barbie Dolls were already given to less fortunate children.

hello,
Ohh? really?I never thought that a kids now thinking deep like that. Well, your right everything seem so different like before. You know I still have my barbie doll in mine and she is wearing a long gown like a princess and I still take good care of it. So, yes the manufacturer must aware of it. I am one of you.

Yes. Barbie dolls have really transformed. I think this is wrong because young girls will be influenced to be just like those barbies. When they grow up, they would want to wear short dresses and flaunt their bodies too. They might want to get surgeries to achieve that perfect barbie look. This is just so wrong..

barbie dolls were a girly fad that happeend a generation ago and still has some fascination left.While it helps give the girlkids an imaginary friend,it also contributed to the increasing anorexia cases in the country among teenage girls.Not much to say about them
