'And then? I imagine your formerly sweet little girl will be wanting to carry it in a sling instead of pushing it in a stroller like God intended. Before you know it, she?s feeding that baby doll homemade organic baby food from some communist food CSA, pre-registering it for a Waldorf preschool, selling the family TV, and refusing to shave her armpit hair.'

Laughing at quotes like 'it sexualises our little girls', I fail to see it. If anything it teaches them the 'proper' function of breasts and I could think of 1,000,001 other things that sexualise girls being marketed for children or seen by them on daily occasion!


Agreed you shouldn't be needing to spend $89 to let your child have a doll where all you essentially need is some imagination (..kids have that, right?!) Christ, I sat there untold nights having Winnie, Tigger and Piglet put to my boobs and being told to feed them, infact she even tried it herself! My daughter does everything with her dolls, even brushing their non-existent hair. And hers don't even poo, or wee, or feed!

Very true GinaG3. How ridiculous really. Found my son breastfeeding a doll at a toddler group recently. It was a very proud moment for me, but he didn't need a special doll to do it....you don't even get that at the breastfeeding workshop!! Just a way of making money unfortunately.

    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
    • A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post
    • I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds? 
    • Certainly unique, can't argue with that.
