Positive female role models on NBC

29 Oct

MissRepresentation got me thinking about why no one attempts to have positive female role models and when our role as a female is decided. I realized little girls watching princess movies are conditioned to think that is how life should be from a very early age. This week NBC’s The Office put on a Halloween episode that addressed a parent’s role in making positive role models for children. I thought it was interesting that NBC made it a parent’s role yet they are also a media outlet providing this insight. It was almost a double whammy on who should be responsible for creating the role models: parents or the media? Take a look at around the 1 minute mark.
