I didn’t realise the reason was because of the mother and baby homes, I obviously don’t understand the sentiment behind that because all due respect but to me it all sounds a bit ridiculous
Every day i become more convinced the public are generally retarded.
That’s some leap of feeling offended.
So we’re just going to assume that all along people thought 4 year old girls had birthed their own Baby Annabelle dolls? OK so.
It’s an absolute disgrace.
Do these old crones know that people still get adopted? Imagine an adopted child heard that these were pulled because the word “adopt” is apparently offensive to people
OMfG…now we’ll have to spend money on one of the billion different types of overpriced toys made by 7 years olds far far away.
This is really sad. As an adopted person I would have absolutely loved the idea of having an “adopted” doll when I was a little girl.
How powerful is Liveline exactly? Like could we harness its powers for good?
And thats why you never work with the public.
Adoption itself is a beautiful thing but I realise that in much of Ireland’s recent history, adoption was something done by force and theft. And I empathise with the people still living with the trauma of that but the dolls aren’t connected to that all. We have to take responsibility for the harmless things that trigger us
I went to the Christian Brothers ( definitely not very Christian)… So can both Christian Bale and Slater be cancelled 🤷♀️🤷♀️
Oh shit
What happens when they get tired of them after Christmas. Do we need to open a doll orphanage?
This has to be the stupidest story I’ve read this year and there’s really stiff competition. The Shelbourne slaves come in a close 2nd.
Joe Duffy and his goons are absolute blights on this country
That fat cunt needs taken off the air, he’s genuinely a menace to the public good and the mental health of us as a whole
FFS…… Are Cabbage Patch Kids going to be cancelled now here too?
Im calling bullshit on this.
These backwords auld cunts dont want to normalise adoption, they look down on it as a lower down way of starting a family and are using the mother and baby homes as a bs defence.
Would they prefer if the sales assistant dressed as a nun and demanded proof that they’re Catholic?
I don’t get what the problem is. Adoption is very much still a thing, even in Ireland. I’d hate to see the outrage if they were selling dolls as part of a family with same sex parents.
Adoption in itself is not a bad thing. It’s given countless people, both parents and children, a better shot at life. Tearing children from their mother’s arms is another issue entirely.
Joe Duffy is a literal plague on Irish society
What a pile of shite

represent the Irish experience of mother-and-baby homes and forced
adoptions.

Oh no! Anyways

Imagine jumping from a simple doll to mother-and-baby homes
