Barbie as role model
I was sitting next to Edith in the front room whiling away some time before bed.
"Are you going to be a sporty girl or a lazy girl when you grow up?", I asked.
"Sporty girl", she responded.
"Are you going to be a clever girl or a dumb girl?"
"Clever girl"
"Are you going to a mean girl or a kind girl?!
"Kind girl"
Edith paused for a second,
"I'm gona be barbie"
Okaaaay.
