MIL bought baby boy doll with willy for my DD

[AlwaysHopefull89]

I am pregnant and expecting a baby boy. MIL (very kindly) bought a baby doll with a very obvious willy… in preparation?

I don’t think my DD who is 3 needs to understand the anatomy of her little brother yet until I say so? She hasn’t been asking about private parts yet let alone little boys?!

When I saw her she then finally said ‘I hope it was ok to give it to her’… is it just me or is this odd?

DH said it was a good idea to ‘prepare her’ but I think the opposite? Am I being a bit OTT? 🤦🏻‍♀️

My sister was given Jonathan 50 odd years ago. No big deal then, so no big deal now imho.

I just don’t think children of a young age should have sexualised toys. But if you disagree that’s up to you.

How is it sexualized? It's just anatomically correct?

I think you're playing with them wrong 😱

Not sure what to make of that comment but my initial reaction was ewww that’s a bit weird.

She’s done the right thing! This is how kids learn!!

If you think baby dolls are a sexualised toy then you are definitely playing with it wrong! There's something very not right in your household.
Little children look after them like a baby, nothing to do with sex 😱

This is a disgusting comment. It’s actually good for children have toys with accurate body parts so they know what to call them. One toy with anatomically correct body parts is really useful and they can also point to the doll id that part hurts.

Exactly and learning to wipe them and change their nappy. And learn about boy vs girl.

If you say so

Baby dolls with penis’s are not necessary I never said ‘baby dolls’ twisting my words to suit your narrative. How dare you suggest something isn’t right in my household, just because I think the very young should be protected. If you want your baby to play with willies that’s up to you but don’t judge people that don’t, and there are many of us.

I’m afraid it is absolutely you who is being odd. At 3 your daughter should know what a penis is and be able to use the correct word for it.

It's very worrying that you see baby dolls as sexual 🤔

Wtf is wrong with you that you think an anatomically correct doll = playing with a willy? Yuck.

he doesn't come with a cock ring and a condom. there's nothing sexual about a doll unless it's one of those rubber blow up ones with two holes

I think it was very good of your MIL to consider and think of that - you are being OTT.

😂

Very odd that some people see children’s toys as sexual 🤮

Does anyone remember Tiny Tears that you could make wee? I don’t think any normal people looked at Tiny Tears in a sexual way so why would you at a boy doll?

Baby Annabell could poo but as a child it didn’t make me think of shagging up the arse because newsflash they aren’t sexual dolls and those that think children’s dolls are sexual things have something really fucking wrong with them.

Fucking hell. You win 😂😂😂

My three year old boys strips naked at any opportunity. It is pretty common!

You’re the one having a fit of the vapours about a plastic doll’s willy, op 😆

My son would certainly not be having a doll after the age of 1yo.

We are trying to teach the 10yo not to run around naked…

Why on earth not? Nothing wrong with boys playing with dolls if they want to

?? Why ??
