Dolls Get Breast Implants in Miss Bimbo Game

Seems as though there are people out there who believe it is a good thing to teach our children that breast implants and being materialistic is okay. Not to mention teaching them to watch their weight and being rewarded for all of this. Children as young as seven years of age are playing a Web-based game called Miss Bimbo. When will the craziness stop?

I certainly hope that parents will do all they can to keep their children from this website. We just can’t raise our children thinking that this is okay!

This site has also taken off in France, where it is called Ma Bimbo. The creator is quoted as saying that he thinks this is all harmless fun.

I don’t have children but if I did, I sure would be monitoring their Internet usage.

This is just the absolute wrong message to be teaching girls who are already struggling with body image issues. Also, it is so dangerous to be teaching a child that breast implants are something that every woman should have.

When I was a kid I played Chutes and Ladders and Mouse Trap. I can’t even imagine this type of game. At seven years of age, I didn’t even know what a breast implant was nor was I concerned with my weight. This sends a very bad message to children.
