I saw a cool magazine this week at school that was all about girls/women and sports. There were women of all shapes and sizes, with mercifully few ads for beauty products. I thought to myself, "wow! I wonder if there is a magazine like this for little girls?" It would be better if this magazine didn't accept advertising, even if it was more expensive per issue.
So far, I can't find anything.
I am trying, as much as possible, to limit the insidious influence of advertising (beauty products etc) on her life. I don't want her to grow up and become part of the hyper=sexualized media campaign of Miley Cyrus and the like. I want her to enjoy being a little girl, be comfortable with her body and see some positive role models.
Is there anything out there? and if there isn't, will I have to create it??
