Barbie is a toy that still involves some imagination, around which children can create their own fantasy world instead of having one ready-made and presented to them. Of course it's a multi-million dollar industry so Barbie has a world.
Barbie is just a doll. Such a little thing and yet, in recent years, she has had so much criticism aimed at her and has, seemingly, a lot to answer for.
But little girls, often know better than their parents, for it is the parents' hang-ups and associations that make Barbie "dangerous".
A Barbie is no worse for a child than a teddy or a train set, all wonderful staples of childhood that we should encourage. With a Barbie, or any doll, a child can go anywhere, do anything. Together they can have fabulous adventures that will feed their minds and develop their imaginations
