What are we teaching our children?

Surely this is a joke product? Sadly not. I came across ‘micro aggression’ toys a couple of weeks ago with the heavily overstocked shelves full of Christmas goodies.

Maybe I shouldnt be so shocked because WWF and other fighting/wrestling toys have been on the market for so long. Perhaps it’s just how blatant the name is.

I’m not going to be wrapping aggression for any of my nephews.

When these kids are being referred to anger management in a decade, or driving their parents crazy by being aggressive in the home or at school, it would be great if we could take the manufacturers of these toys partially responsible. I wish.
