Have you heard the uproar over the Barbie that comes with stick on tattoos???
I am astounded by this! My 4 year old daughter and I have been so excited about getting this Barbie since the first time we saw it advertised. How cool - you can put tattoos not only on the Barbie, but it comes with ones for you as well. My husband and I both have tattoos and my daughter has a collection of fake tattoos. Hey, she wants to be like us. We are responsible members of society, lead normal lives and don't show off our bodies just to show off our tattoos. I believe for most people, tattoos are a little more personal than a way to show off their bodies. Besides, who knows if she will get older and want a tatoo or not, she is a kid and is PLAYING - it's what kids do!
Parents need to be responsible for their kids. Buy what fits your family and leave your ideals out of everyone else’s lives and the manufactures of products. Now, if it was a hatchet toting, blood splattered Barbie, I might have to think about that one. BUT A TATTOO, seriously, my 82 year old grandfather has tattoos!!!
