The Princess Problem: Guiding Our Girls through the Princess-Obsessed Years

But pop culture princesses are part of a powerful marketing machine, encouraging obsessive consumerism and delivering negative stereotypes about gender, race, and beauty to young girls. The Princess Problem features stories and advice from parents, educators, psychologists, and children’s industry insiders-including former Disney employees-to equip every parent with skills that will help them navigate their daughters’ princess-saturated worlds.
