No kidding.
Its evidence of God and Santa if any was ever needed.
Bratz will no longer be on the shelves after Christmas, the courts ordered the molds broken! The name can no longer be used.

haha I love that picture. I wonder what they’ll do to replace her. I hear Barbie is getting a facelift too, she’ll be modeled after Christina Aguilera.

My husband designed that for me!
Are you serious? No more Bratz? That’s good news to me!
Ever since our daughter noticed them in the store, we have told her that those dolls were unacceptable and that we weren’t going to have any toys that were called a brat. She looks at them with interest though. I think she’s amazed at how sassy and loose they look.
lol,..’loose’ is a very nice way of putting it.
I was so happy to hear about this. My daughter just received two barbie-like princess dolls in a package from the in-laws. My mom’s intuition served me well–that’s the only explanation for how I knew they were in there. I peeked inside the wrapping paper of every present until I found them. Then promptly hid them in my closet.
Because dd has to open her gifts on Skype so they can see, I now have to explain to my m-i-l why we’re not “doing” barbie dolls. And do so beforehand, otherwise she’ll squeak, “Where are the princess dolls?” and the gig will be up.
First Santa, now this. Why do people who LOVE my child insist on perpetuating “traditions” that are not healthy?
dude this has got to be a joke. it can’t be true because walmart has tons of bratz and they said they most likely always will. The manager told me they restock up on bratz about once every week so this is a lie. plus toys r us still sells them. why do people have to lie like this. just because you don’t like bratz doesn’t mean they are going to stop selling them. Liar,Liar,Liar.
Kaitlynn: Wow. Do you really think it’s necessary to call Tracee a liar? I too read an article about Bratz being gone. Don’t you think it’s possible that they reached some sort of agreement?
