This toy has made my little sister, Corrina, so happy! She's almost completed the Happy Family set and really enjoys playing with them! She says they rock! They're the bees-knees for any child to play with! Even, I, (...) like to join her game once in a while!

I thought that this was going to be a great toy to add some reality to the role-playing my little cousins do with their barbies & friends.

Imagine my surprise when Grandpa-doll was returned to me with an angry note from my Uncle (who is only a few years older than I am and more like an older brother)! The note said that his youngest girl (6 years old) ran from the bedroom she shares with her older sister (9 years old) crying. When he went to investigate he found that the older daughter had brought in some dirt from the backyard and was burying the Grandpa-doll in a shoe box with their other barbies sitting around the box (watching). She explained by saying that "old people die". My little cousin had nightmares for a week and the older cousin was really mad that she had to give up the Grandpa-doll. I *never* saw that one coming!

When I called to apologize, my Aunt said it was no big deal and she thought my Uncle had over-reacted. They never explained why they didn't return the Grandma-doll too.
