We�ve already seen evidence that real-life kids are being saddled unfairly with Common Core-aligned math textbooks that are plain junk. So who wants to see the popular American Girl doll hauling around a Common Core math textbook? A Common Core-aligned Pearson textbook is included in American Girl�s school backpack set.

I feel vindicated We refused to buy or allow these for my daughter. The expense alone was the lesson and she was taunted for not having some which was another learning experience. Now that they are part of this agenda I hope they all off the radar all together

I don't know how we got signed up for the catalogue, but we did. I think our zip. But we never let her have one. She was a good kid, we explained and she accepted it.

When she was excluded from games with freinds because she didnt have one it was heartbreaking. She has a reasonably priced other doll....not good enough for the "in crowd".But that again was an important lesson.

We all learned from that because the kids were in grade school but the mothers never stepped in to guide their daughters to be inclusive. I can't get inside their heads, all I know is they were ok with hurting a little girls feelings over a doll.

I didn't have that problem with the teachers. I can't imagine, it must have been a major hurdle!

For us it was all about being elitist and spoiled. We just were not having any of that.
