Advertisements and Girls
I let my children watch TV but only certain shows and I usually record them on channels with no commercial interruptions so my children do not have to watch commercials. They have enough marketed towards them in the cereal aisle of the grocery store. I think the barrage of you have to be skinny/young/beautiful/not even a little body fat is good, is the most damaging to young girls.
Check out this video from Dove about the images that young girls are faced with day after day.
