I have subscribed to this magazine before and I believe it should be for girls ages 15-17 because of the real life stuff in it.

Out of curiosity I wanted to see what was available for our youth.
I was compelled to say how dissapointed I am at the segregated racist world we live in.
Each cover shows a white, blond girl. They're pretty and covered in make-up. What is it this magazine is trying to convey?
The United States is a multi-cultural country of beautiful girls from various ethnicities.
Let us foster that beautiful unity in diversity & continue to inculcate this into our girls that beauty on the inside certainly makes one even more beautiful on the outside.

Not approrpriate for 9-14 year old girls, February 15, 2008

I've just cancelled my 12 year old daughter's subscription. Their marketing materials state this is an appropriate magazine for young girls ages 9-14, yet a recent issue had a large feature article on teenage pregnancy as well as articles on the cast of Gossip Girl. Have you seen this show? My daughter certainly hasn't as it deals with high schoolers having sexual relationships with multiple partners, underage drinking, 14 year olds in night clubs, suicide, drugs...

I got this magazine 3 years ago for my daughter when she was 10 but found that it was inappropriate for her at that age. Now that she is 13 and in middle school it is time for this magazine. I don't think that kids need to date or have boyfriend/girlfriend relationships but they do have to learn to get along with the opposite sex. My daughter and I often read this magazine together and we discuss topics. It's a great way to open the door with your daughter and enjoy some time with her.
They need parents to talk to them about what goes on at school- don't kid yourself, they hear this stuff and more. I have homeschooled my 4 children through 6th grade and on- my daughter is in the 7th grade and taking 2 classes at the local school.
I don't want to close my children off from the world but want to guide them.
This magazine is good for girls in 7th grade on. I wouldn't suggest it for any younger. It is definitely for older girls as well. I don't like that they say it's only for girls up until 12 or 15 I think.

Not for tweens, February 9, 2008

I am a Girl Scout leader with a now 11-year-old daughter. When the annual magazine sale came around last year, GL was listed as "the only magazine for Girl Scouts", ages 10-15. When the first issue arrived, I flipped through it and was very disappointed with what I saw. Articles & letters about teen pregnancy, being sexually active, Dad/Mom is having an affair--the list goes on. If it was just one article I would have ripped the pages out, but that wasn't the case. My opinion is that this magazine is completely inappropriate for any pre-teen, and depending on your own daughter, 14 or 15 may still be the wrong age group. I recommend getting an issue from the library first and doing your own review -- wish I had done so and saved some money.
