Roll Eyes Bratz dolls

O.k here's my dilemmna. I strongly dislike bratz dolls. I don't like the image they portray, I find it really distasteful and trashy. I don't like the message they are giving to little girls as to what an attractive woman/female is. But, of course my five year old really wants one. Mainly because her cousin has a huge collection of them and they play with them when they get together. I have no intention of buying her one but she will get money off her grandparents for her birthday and will probably want to buy one. Do I let her make her own choices as to what to buy or do I say no and assert my control over her? I kind of feel that the more I say no the more she will want it, even though it goes against what I believe in. As she gets older I guess this will become more and more of an issue. What do you think?
