I know each to his own etc etc but today I came across two women probably in their 40 s who had very expensive prams with all the very fancy accessories I said ‘ohh that looks like a tiny one tucked down there’ and as she pulled the covers back she explained it was a ‘reborn’ as was her friends ‘baby’ She was not mentally ill but was rocking the pram as she talked to me and told me her husband stayed with the pram when she had to go in busy shops she also told me there were about fifty women in our town with these ‘babies’ (seemed like a club) the dolls cost around £350 + I really thought I was in a parcelled universe

Is this the latest craze to take over from dressed up silly named dogs

I had four little girls and one never played with dolls but the others had many dolls. I couldn’t bear to see a naked dolly lying on the floor so would tuck them all into their cots and prams under blankets.
Like animals, once a toy was given a name it had a personality and feelings.

watermeadow I am so glad I am not the only one - and for the same reason.
