Fisher Price Dollhouse Rant

I noticed something interesting the other day about our plastic Fisher Price dollhouse. It came with some removeable items, such as: Mommy, Daddy, baby in a stroller, cat, bed, table, and chairs. We've had this toy for at least 9 months, but here's what I just noticed.

The Mom figure is holding a bottle, with a burp cloth slung over her left shoulder.

The Dad figure is holding a newspaper and a to-go coffee cup.

Thanks, Fisher Price, for promoting to a new generation the idea that, even when both parents are home for the day, the Mommy is taking care of the baby while the Daddy enjoys a latte while browsing his Sunday paper. Seriously, couldn't the mommy have gotten to hold at least one of the fun items?

That's all.

That is BS...I'm writing Fisher Price...Mama needs a cosmo in one hand.

Total BS.

Mama needs a cosmo AND a copy of the paper. And I mean the NY Times...no US Weekly.
Sister's mad smart.
