But one author has written a book on how she believes the fairy(仙女) tales send a dangerous message. Jennifer L Hardstein is the author of the recently-published book Princess Recovery.

These kinds of messages, she says, have a huge influence on a girls self-confidence and make it hard for children to understand as they grow up, that wisdom, generosity and passion(热情) are more important values. During an appearance on CBS Early Show, Dr Hardstein explained: “Girls are getting this message everywhere that. what their worth is based on is how they look and the things that they have, and its very superficial.”Speaking on the show she said: Parents think their kids will understand the messages that they are attacked with all the time but they dont. As well as warning of the dangers of “Princess Syndrome”, her book advises parents how to guide their children from an early age.She adds that its not just magazines, TV shows and online media that is giving our children the wrong ideas about what is important. She makes a promise to parents, “Princess Recovery will bring balance, confidence, and self-sufficiency into your daughters life while giving her a modern, colorful childhood.”41.
