Consumer culture and teenage girls in distress


Recent research has shown the influences of rampant corporate commercialism and celebrity are having a massively negative effect on girls.  This new book "Raising Girls" by Steve Biddulph is a guidebook and a call to arms for parents...there has been a sudden and universal deterioration in girls' mental health, starting in primary school and devastating the teenage years. 

"We are in the process of making our schools an extension of the HR departments of big corporations and allowing into education the constant testing and pressures that are destroying girls' lives."
