The American Girl Doll has been facing backlash lately for teaching kids about gender transition. The same is being advocated through their recent book titled A Smart Girl's Guide: Body Image. This book talks about how a prepubescent can change their gender. However, the book has been receiving massive backlash as parents have been finding it “deceptive and dangerous.”The American Girl book, which is being marketed to young girls below the age of 12, instructs them on how they can make permanent changes to their bodies if they are unhappy with the features they were born with. However, the ideologies of the book do not seem to sit well with the grown-ups as they felt that the book can be triggering and can make girls over-aware and conscious of their bodies.Bethany S.

The book has been in the spotlight for a while, as it advocates using puberty blockers. The book also talks about how girls who are confused about their gender can take medication, especially if they do not wish to undergo hormone therapy.The book states:“If you haven't gone through puberty yet, the doctor might offer medicine to delay your body's changes, giving you more time to think about your gender identity.”Furthermore, the title also advertises the organizations in the country that can help out young girls with more resources and information on the matter.A few lines state:"If you don’t have an adult you trust, there are organizations across the country that can help you. Turn to the resources on page 95 for more information."At the same time, parents and social media users are now worried about the book’s content, as many feel that the information in the book can be “deceptive” for many.
