Failfix dolls : Fury from Parents
 
https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2021/11...6889440517.jpg

[Dolls that let children as young
as six 'fix' their 'fail face' spark
outrage as critics say they're offering a
'hideous message' to youngsters
Failfix dolls let children rid them of old,
smudged makeup and 'fix' their faces
Parents have taken to Twitter
to reveal their outrage at the dolls'
messaging
The toys were labelled 'hideous' by people
who think they're harmful for girls
However, the brand has always denied
that messaging is harmful, saying:
'A failed makeover is not a failed person']

Maybe by using the word Fail
in it, has upset the parents

Yes
I am sure GMBHD itv
could have one with Ed Balls presenting it
and one guest saying how clever
the other saying "fail" should not be on it.

I don't think the message is brilliant in all honesty - but I also don't think they're any worse than Bratz dolls, or Barbie dolls, which have been around forever. So I don't think this can be framed as some sort of "new" concern. If anything I think there's something slightly more realistic (and thus "healthy" :think: ) about them than Barbie dolls.

Again that's not to say that they're "good" but they seem to be being held up as a "worse" example of the type of dolls that have existed for many decades.
