'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.

    • The step means Love Dulwich is not disabled friendly though they went to help someone on  crutches up the step last time we were there  much prefer it as a Turkish than café but maybe not for this group   The noise level might be an issue as it’s all hard surfaces though I don’t recall it being noisy. check out Olivelli the menu has a good range  though it’s not the best Italian you can get. There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
