I ended my association with this organization, and my daughter's, a half year ago. I do not believe they are a wholesome source. Their magazine does not represent the type of things I want to instill in my 9yo.

What specifically was in there that made you uncomfortable? My daughter is too young for us to be purchasing the product right now.

Our 8-year old daughter has subscribed to the magazine for a year now and looks forward to every issue. I gently discussed with her the Girls, Inc. issue, and although she is disappointed, she agrees that she no longer wants the magazine or the dolls. I'm very proud of her.

I'd love it if American Girls stopped its support of Girls, Inc., but it doesn't seem as if the company is interested. Perhaps they will be interested when there bottom line is affected.
