My 5 year old daughter has been binging a bit of the new Winx Club this morning. I’ve kinda enjoyed it too but omg the figures, clothes, questionable ‘camera’ angles and boy obsession. Would I be unreasonable to hide it on the Netflix and/or discuss with her why …. the reason being seeing ridiculously unreal bodies/people not being good for our body image/mental health potentially.
My mum tried to ban me reading the slutty magazines but at least they were real people with a lot of airbrushing. What chance do our girls have in a World where models aren’t considered beautiful enough and we have to create them with AI… argh rant over .
Have I already wrecked her body image by letting her watch this (admittedly quite enjoyable) crap.
Lesson learnt about keeping a closer eye on what is available on the kiddy account. Please be kind x
