		<description>Saying bratz aren't good for your daughter is like calling them stupid.Dolls are to be played with not to be hated.My girl thinks that too. Bratz are a symbol of confidence with style.</description>

		<description>I think your approach to Bratz dolls is close-minded and silly. Bratz have no intention on causing girls to look like whores. Have you even viewed the show or the movie. If that's the case, wouldn't the movie and the show have a higher moview rating such as PG-13 or even R?</description>

		<description>I really dont see on how you can grow to hate or dislike a 10" piece of plastic. I dont really recall this much negativity towards the barbie doll, what does she dress so appropriately. honestly its just a doll. it only sends the message you want it to send, it only teaches your children what you want them to. If you tell your child, The doll's a sl**, that will steryotype certain women and growing young ladies who dress simalar like that as slutty or innapropriate. you shouldnt categorize something by the way it dresses or how much make up it has,THAT would be sending the wrong message. the dolls only show the styles and trends that are on the growing market. If you dont want ur children exposed to these dolls than just dont buy them for them. I know of an experienece in which my niece brought to school a bratz doll and was shunned by her peers as one of her so called "friends" told her the doll was trashy which automatically made her one too. what is this bull, people you see what ur feeding your children. its not the dolls causing damage, its you. well heres a reality check, this line may be ending but their will be plenty or more so called slutty doll lines out there. you can battle and suppose save yourselfs from them, but the image those dolls give out you will always face, whether you think its good or bad.</description>

		<description>I really dont think Bratz dolls are a bad influence at all on our girls. For one, they are the only type of doll that comes in all races: African American, Caucasian, Asian, and Latino. I think that's teaching young children diversity. Also, I dont think they dress like sluts! That is how the typical teenage girl of today would dress going to a party or to school. And as far as the makeup goes, I dont think that will drive girls to dress like prostitutes and go have sex! Jeez just relax already!</description>

		<description>I would buy my daughter a bratz doll if she were interested, which she isn't. I do realize they dress like sluts :), but it's dumb to hide my duaghter from the world. They will enter middle and high school before you know it, and they will see it a lot then and on TV. Even on the internet, which you obviously let her on. Let her experiance the dolls, there just plastic dolls after all, and if you care so much let her mother decide. I think that it would be best if you asked her. Besides, your opinion counts though, too, and people on the Internet won't change your opinion... it might. 
But if you want her not to understand the media, your one strict girl. Barbie is a classic, however, and I could pick those over Bratz, but that isn't what she wants. Buy her what she wants if you approve and her mother or whoever approves, not the Interet and the people on it.
It's up to the parents... not the company to teach your kids that wearing these clothes, hanging with guys which is probably your boyfriend, and having big boobs doesn't matter. The company is just helping kids' have fun. Coping the Bratzb is commen, but it's really up to the parents. Deep down they'll know that it was the're fault, but they want to blame someone else.</description>

		<description>This answer is no. Bratz may dress badly for our young children, but if they didn't none of the kids would buy them. The media wants us to dress in sluty skirts, short tops and high heels. They want us to have big boobies, skinny stomaches, and big butts. Bratz did copy barbie, a classic. It is up to the parent to teach your children about what is right and wrong: what is right to wear: and what toys are good your your kids, NOT the company.
  My three daughters, 13 year old Katie; 6 year old Hannah; and Jessica age 10 love bratz and barbies, they aren't brats and even though there very pretty, they do NOT wear short things, or things that is bad for their age. I've teached them well, so has my husband Chris. They have sevreal Bratz, and many many collections of barbies. Mostly the collectibles. They have many new outfits, there all in great shape, and they even have sevreal videos made together on youtube.com of movies they've made. 
They also have webkinz. Those who say that bratz are horrible rolemodels, this may be true in some ways. But parents who say this are worse than these dolls, after all there just dolls. The parents need to take care of their kids, teach them about life. If your kid wants a mini-skirt without leggings, say no. Tell her the media is wromg. Make up reasons why its ugly- even though it really isn't. If they growup to be sluts... parents are going to blame these toys. But secretly in their minds, they know who was wrong.</description>

		<description>My hubbie and I let his daughters play with bratz in our household, but the children's mother found out (not that we were hiding it of course) and freaked. In our house, we feel that if we raise the children to have high morals and ethics by the way that we treat eachother, make the right decisions, etc, that these girls will grow up being strong women. I played with barbies and toy guns, and I am not a prostitute, or killing people. HOWEVER, the children's mother who will not allow the girls to play with bratz, dropped out of school at fourteen, pregnant at 16 and has two other children out of wedlock. She displays poor judgement with the children and has low morals and ethics. I KNOW that a doll should not and will not raise your children, it will be you as a PARENT. BTW, the mother also allows her children to watch buffy (which contains sex and violence), and R Rated movies (go figure!)</description>

		<description>Ok, barbies, the new dora, and now bratz? what else? HSM? Really, I don't think they're very bad. Sure, you can take off their clothes, but really, what kid would want to see that?</description>
