Adult Barbie - is fishnets too far?
"Totally amoral" is how Child Psychologist Doctor Michael Carr-Gregg describes the move by Mattel.
Mattell's Barbie franchise has been undermined by the success of the worldly-wise BRATZ range of dolls.
"Fishnets stockings... it's going too far," he says. "It's really outrageous."
Doctor Carr-Gregg says the barometer for these kinds of things is would you wear what the doll is wearing to work? "I call on all the Sunrise family to boycott this toy."
Will you boycott this toy or do you think it is not as "outrageous" as the Doctor says?

Kurt Fearnley: I was relief teaching in Blayney when I met Kurt as a young school boy. The first thing that struck me was his smile and contagious positive outlook at all times. I see nothing has changed with this outstanding Australian. Although I never saw him again, it is a testament to the power of his personality that I have not forgotten him more than 15 years later.
