Part of the negative fallout from television programs has been the rash of programming that depicts girls as competitive, mean, and bullying others. A recent post on the Common Sense Media site laments this relentless trend and acknowledges that parents may find it somewhat difficult to steer their daughters toward positive viewing. In the post “Beyond Catfight: TV That’s Good for Girls,” Common Sense Media lists several good options for parents to consider for their daughters, especially those aged 7 to 14:
- SciGirls (ages 7+)
- iCarly (ages 8+)
- Picker Sisters (ages 10+)
- Born to Dance (ages 12+)
- Tia & Tamera (ages 13+)
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer (ages 13+)
- 2 Broke Girls (ages 14+)
- Parks and Recreation (ages 14+)
