I think it is great that an arm of such an influential group would send this message to young girls.

Against the Cinderella culture, a Catholic high school in Kentucky has a blunt message for young girls
“You’re not a princess,” "But you can still rule the world" Mercy Academy says in a new ad

“Don’t wait for a prince,” reads another. “Be able to rescue yourself.”

“This message empowers them to move beyond that whole fairy tale idea and to write their own story."said Mercy principal Amy Elstone
