When I was six, if my grandma had a whole room with dolls and their stuff (cribs! a changing table!), I’d have been thrilled. When I was seven, I would have asked my mom if grandma was okay. By the time I was eight, I’d probably ask mom if I could sit out in the car in read instead of visit the old crazy lady.

Holy shit, I saw that when it aired. The expression on my face resembled that of a cat trying to hawk up a hair ball but never succeeding. I had forgotten about it so thanks (not) for reminding me. Heh. What these ladies need, now that I’ve mentioned it, are dozens of cats. Cat Ladies are far saner than Fake Baby Ladies.

My favorite part was the doll parts going into the oven. I can’t believe no one ever mentioned that these women don’t want real babies because real babies, you know, turn into stubborn toddlers and distant teenagers and do annoying things sometimes. Not to mention that a 15 year old might resist being pushed around in a stroller as an attention-magnet for ma.
Also, there is no way that woman could adopt if she wanted to. She is a lunatic. An adoption agency would never go for that shit.

Jesus. They can babysit mine and enjoy real-life pooping action and “gimme that food. No, wait, I don’t want it” for a weekend.

I mean, DAMN!

That is a perk I hadn’t yet considered!

You have to watch horrible shows for two now.

In fact, I did *not* see it was under “Bossing You.” I will now have to watch, but if I am permanently scarred, you’re paying for the therapist!

I saw some segments from the BBCAmerica show, and those people freaked me out. They seriously need help.

And they’re not alone, by a long shot. If you look on eBay, there’s TONS of stuff for Reborn dolls on there. The dolls themselves are hundreds or thousands of dollars. What’s really freaky is the auctions for doll parts. Gyuh.

Hey! One of them was South Asian, so they’re not all pasty. Everything else you said was accurate.
