Reborn dolls, your opinion on this?

for me it is too weird and freaky, as a mother with 3 kids the love I have for them is constantly growing and evolving, just when I think I couldn't possibly love them any more than I do now, they go and say/do something and my heart swells, the love is more profound than before. To have a permanent baby, to me, rings out that these women can't handle emotional attachments of a real baby/children.

I don't know, it just freaks me out.

It's making babies a fashion accessory. People cant be bothered with all the 'bad' bits, like feeding, and having to change nappies etc, but they want to look responsible by pushing a fake one around...

We all have our peculiar ways... some more peculiar than others.

For women who can't have kids, it would be be a way to enjoy at least a little part of having children.

I don't think it would help one bit, for women who don't/can't have children to at least enjoy a little part of having children, in my opinion I think it would be so cruel, and it would make them feel even worse that they don't have a real baby. To yearn for it to talk, to grab a hold of your fingers, to need you, to have a face that is only reserved for their mother who has gone and come back - breaking out in a wide smile that their mother has returned, there are so many things that makes a baby 'baby' than pushing it around in the pram, to hold it etc.

MNP hit it in the head, I've got a basket full of clothes that needs to be washed, it's amazing how dirty the clothes get despite your best intentions to keep them clean , I swear, the smaller the baby the more mess it makes, to have those dolls, my house would be perfect in every way, I wouldn't have to get up in the mornings to sort out the breakfast, to plan my day around the baby, wouldn't have to decline invitations to parties as the nanny isn't available, and etc.

It's still creepy! I thought the more I look at it the less creepy it would be, but no, I'm still freaked out!

I find that very bizarre. The women interviewed weren't even ones who couldn't have children. There must be other ways of getting stress relief.
