do you think i can get me a reborn dh? Ideally one that doesn't snore?

I so wish my internet connection was in the same room as the TV - last night would've been priceless.

Like everyone else, I am at C4 deliberately implying that the little boy was dead. How low can you go for ratings?

I noticed some musings about mad pram wheel washer's motives. Did anyone pick up on her saying that they'd delayed children because they wanted to have fun, and they're still having fun, so no time/inclination for real kids. ie she is selfish, no more, no less.

Given that some women like that do actually have the real thing, I'm thinking that these reborn things actually have an important role to play in our society.

Well, it seems they're loving the documentary

MaeWest · 03/01/2008 22:22

Just watched it (recorded on the digibox thing) . DH had to leave the room as he found it too scary - ugly dead babies was his comment...

slightlyconfused · 03/01/2008 22:22

hi
did anyone else feel utterly gobsmacked watching this. i couldnt believe these were grown women. they took them shopping fgs. even spent 300 on an outfit lol.

MaeWest · 03/01/2008 22:24

Twinkle - I was just thinking that, thought maybe the woman realised she was far too obsessed with perfection/her lovely life to have a real child. That inconveniently grows up

Ow lordy - that monkey!! I am pmsl here!

Samuel's creator is really not very good at this doll reborning is he/she??

Muppetisacat - for you, a reborn dh! A spot of frizzease and he'll look lovely. His willy looks a bit damp.

hippipotami · 03/01/2008 22:28

OMFG Boco - where in the name of all things unmentionable did you find THAT??

I will need therapy for years... (and yet strangely want another look...)

Twinklemegan · 03/01/2008 22:29

Hi MaeWest - my DH also commented that they look dead - it was the first thing he said and he's right

Boco · 03/01/2008 22:31

Hippipotomi - here's one just for you, there are loads, one for everyone! We can take them to the shops and dress them in designer clothes that they can't dribble on - it's going to be great!

muppetisacat · 03/01/2008 22:32
