Uh....there has to be a parent there somewhere buying this stuff for their kids. I think if the parents just smarten the 'f' up and 'just say no' then it wouldn't be an issue. It all comes down to supply and demand for everything. They wouldn't be marketing it if it didn't make them money. She says the biggest market for this is the 8-12 year olds.

The other mention was Brian Reich who said I was 'crazy smart' so I think you folks are all way too digitally hipster chic for me to keep up. Actually, Brian is someone you should ALL meet too. (can't we just have a CCFC quarterly connex rotating regions or somethin'? It was such fun... Brian is one of my Age of Conversation co-author pals, who's Boston based (formerly at Cone Branding, now at EchoDitto) and is very much in the 'do gooder' mode of using media for positive things (Alliance for Climate Protection, etc.) and in fact, he's the one that put me on the AHA panel for teen new media in Tx., yet we STILL haven't met F2F, even though we'd planned on it at CCFC. Dang. Anyway, his new book, "Media Rules: Mastering Today's Technology" is a must read for us all in the nonprofit blogosphere/social media realm when it comes to gaining greater impact, so give it a peek. I'll be posting an interview with him on Shaping Youth soon...just backlogged (quel surprise, eh?) and unearthing new ventures... Miss seeing you ladies already...it was GREAT fun...(and man, that grilled asparagus was delectable!) Are you coming to BlogHer S.F. this summer? Maybe we can have a mini-reunion? Also agree I'd love to get Julie Gale blogging pronto too...she has much to say and the wit to say it well! What a hoot, and a pleasure to hear her speak at the summit...more soon, Amy J.
