The American Toy designed in mint condition and lasts about 60 years before it becomes used like an old blanket. Tossed aside to the whims of society. How do you become the best Toy of America? How do you over-last your memory before your tossed out?

A great toy is one who attends school with high honors. You must be a smart toy to make it through your later years but we will not teach you at the rate other countries teach their toys. No. We will take away crucial funding for education to test the will of our newest toys.

Great grades can mean more means to get an even better education past a toys norm. Your pretty toy friends will find themselves discovering paths, and taking risks but the pressure for you is to have even better things to outshine them right?

If you get too fat you become a toy of laziness and who wants a toy that doesn’t have a drive? You won’t get a job if you don’t say the perfect words. Among the billions they want the perfect but won’t tell you how to be perfect.

If you do get a degree the pressure is real. You must now find another Toy that suits you to build a home, and structure the expected life like all the other toys in town. We are sold as build-a-beard who have only slight imperfections and desires all the latest technology.

Those who don’t follow the proper toy structure become defective. Less important, and told they are nothing more than dust under the rug.

To break the chain of being a defective toy — you must find ways to gain things over passions to be the very best toy. Its simple to be an American toy. What brand are you?
