Still Waters Posted February 4, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 4, 2014 A range of horror dolls has angered a Russian parents' group who claim they promote suicide and could be "a threat to national security", it seems. http://www.bbc.co.uk...ewhere-26017539 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatFromHell Posted February 4, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 4, 2014 When I was a kid cutting the heads off my Barbie dolls I would have loved one of these dolls instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSquirrel Posted February 4, 2014 #4 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Odd. My daughter has a whole collection she plays with often. My only complaint is their strange anatomy. She isn't into death (though she loves the Addams Family movies). She also knows that they are dolls and just as realistic as Barbie having 1,000,000 jobs.

Dumpnuts Posted February 4, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Or... they could just not buy them & allow normal people with normal children to enjoy them. Just a thought. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was my thought to, but a facepalm seemed the better approach. Lol. Barbie to me is hurting our kids more than these dolls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecoNoir Posted February 4, 2014 #8 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Oh drink your damn vodka and maybe pay attention to your bloody government!

XenoFish Posted February 4, 2014 #9 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Rampant idiocy. It's just a doll, which looks kind of cool. If you child commits suicide, it's not the dolls fault. It's unspoken troubles or bad parenting. My G.I. Joe's didn't make me want to go out and kill people. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeeeze, this is far too a sensible thing to do. these will be the same "normal" people who leave their children on facebook unsupervised. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecoNoir Posted February 4, 2014 #14 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Of course one would figure after the Great Purge and WW2 the Russian people would largely be desensitized to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashotep Posted February 4, 2014 #16 Share Posted February 4, 2014 The things some people get up in arms about. Wonder if this is the same people that don't see anything wrong with beating gays to death. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psyche101 Posted February 6, 2014 #18 Share Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) Odd. My daughter has a whole collection she plays with often. My only complaint is their strange anatomy. She isn't into death (though she loves the Addams Family movies). She also knows that they are dolls and just as realistic as Barbie having 1,000,000 jobs. My Daughter has "Draculoria" (I think - that's how she says it) and I do not think she even associates a Vampire as being dead, to her it's just another cartoon character, I wonder how the movie "Coraline" went over there? Now that was spooky. I thought it sounded like a storm in a teacup until I followed the link and read this: "Children have been acting weirdly," Zhabreyev said in another interview. "One girl aged seven wants to wear a black dress, to change her hair colour and threatened to harm herself if her mother took away the toy." A girl want to wear a BLACK dress!!!! I mean, this is obviously the end of days and I best burn my daughters doll as soon as I get home. I mean imagine a girl wanting to wear a black dress, and as if that is not enough - OMG Hair colour change. Or defying parents? Who ever heard of such a thing!!! That is without doubt the direct mark of Satan. Poor girl is lost now. I wont be visiting Russia anytime soon, as we all know what happens when the Devil is invoked in this way - first dogs and cats will start living together, and then Horses will start eating each other. I don't want to be around when that all starts up..... Well, if you can't beat 'em..... Edited February 6, 2014 by psyche101 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
