In rural southern Illinois a toy company began selling "realistic" baby dolls to expectant mothers.
But apparently after the mother had her child the toy baby would start crying. Eventually the
"rocking motion" advertised to calm it down wouldn't work, and you couldn't get it to stop without
shaking it. Eventually when it started crying the parent would have to beat it, and the beatings
and thrashings would have to get harder and harder to get it to be quiet. The only thing that seemed
to shut the baby doll up permanently was the bash its head against the wall to destroy whatever
mechanism triggered the crying. On more than one occasion though, neighbors called the authorities
to report child abuse, and when the police arrived they found the bloody remains of infants smeared
across the walls and the floor. In most cases the mother couldn't understand why the police were
there, she just "got rid of the stupid doll" as she rocked a baby-shaped bundle in her arms.
Daaaamn, that's grim as fuck!
