* BrokenAesop: The movie is infamous for its promotion of unbridled materialism, since their looks and fashion seem to be the only thing the heroines have in common. This undermines the BeYourself lesson by reducing people to their looks and accessories. No wonder Meridith split the girls up so easily.

If she's so poor, where did she get all of those clothes, the computer in her bedroom, and the moped she drives to school? (It is never mentioned whether or not she has a job outside of school to make up for it.)

This actually manages to work for a few years, as everyone but Yasmin manages to fit into a clique, and the later attempts to break out of this situation is what creates the big conflict.

* BrokenAesop: The movie is infamous for its promotion of unbridled materialism, since their looks and fashion seem to be the only thing the heroines have in common. This undermines the BeYourself lesson by reducing people to their looks and accessories. No wonder Meridith split the girls up so easily. To make matters worse, pretty much all of the characters are stereotypes of some form or another, which is hardly promoting individuality.

** Meredith may be doing it because she's a dictator and likes to be AlphaBitch, but face it, why wouldn't people with similar interests want to meet each other? It's not as if the Bratz discover they hate the cliques they're pushed into. If you've ever been lonely, you may have encountered groups that explicitly help you meet up with people who share your interests.
