My resentment for her is just growing by the day. Chloe is only 3, almost 4, and it seems that a lot of girls close to her age are already playing with Barbies. I had been debating whether or not she was going to be allowed to play with Barbies for a long time. I had all my old ones in the attic and I had been putting off taking them out for her. I took them out a few days ago and I just can't do it. I will be donating all of them. I found a great alternative to Barbie that I'm really excited about. I just don't understand who's idea it was to make such and 'adult' doll for little girls! I can't wait to get her out of my house. I feel bad that she will be the weird kid who isn't allowed to play with Barbies, I hate having super-restrictive rules, I just don't agree with anything that doll stands for and I HATE that she is so dang popular. Anyone else hate Barbie?
