Its odd & kind of creepy, i could imagine some crazy person owning it & thinking it really was a child, sitting it down for dinner with a meal in front of it etc!!

They really freak me out!

Did anyone see that programme a while ago about how people treat them like babies?! That was really disturbing!

could you imagine it beig in the corner of the room, i'd be waiting for it to turn its head to look at me.

people pay thousands for them as well.
i appreciate the art of it though very clever people who make them,
just cant understand why someone would want one

I had amazing fun posing her and I was disappointed with the weather being so awful and cold and wet in the UK, I could not take her outside for some more wonderful poses.

The people who buy them treat them like real babies. One lady on this programme I watched got one designed to look exactly like her grandson, who was still alive but lived in NZ and she would take the doll out in a pushchair, dressed in baby clothes, bought children's toys etc.
