Seriously??


Have you seen the commercial for this new Barbie? Well, most of you probably don't leave your tv tuned in to Nick Jr. the entire day. This commercial seriously cracks me up. It's the next Barbie in a series of "I can be..." and it actually says in the commercial, and on the box "BABY DOCTOR." Also known as a PEDIATRICIAN!!!! Are you kidding me, Barbie?? Heaven forbid we teach our kids the correct terminology. I mean, as long as you look cute, right? I know in the past, "math class was tough." Apparently, so was English.

And check out her wardrobe. She's missing her pants. The napkins they give you to cover up with at the OBGYN's office (or should I have said "Mommy Doctor") cover more surface area than that. Yeah, that's just how I want my "Baby Doctor" to walk in and examine my child.
I guess the upside would be that Bert would finally offer to take our kids in for a well visit.

Sheesh.

Do they have a "baby momma" doll? Or a "baby doctor" Ken doll? Couldn't agree with you more!

This is hilarious! Yeah, no more begging the husband to take a long lunch break to help with the kids while they all get shots and scream their heads off. ha! I am glad they have at least modernized barbie and let her out of the barbie mansion to work, now they just need to work on her outfit. ha!

this is so disappointing.. I was so happy about the change to make Barbie's waist wider and chest smaller.. Therefore not encouraging our girls to dream of body dimensions that would make them fall over if they were some how able to obtain them. I had so many dreams for Barbie evolving into something more than a ditsy blonde..

Maybe "Baby Daddy" Ken will be next?
