A friend on FB has posted a poster - a boy with a doll in a sling, with the words: 'So you let your son play with DOLLS. Aren't you worried he may turn out to be.......................................................................
A good father?'

Daughter had problems with her ex mil, who thought our grandson pushing a pushchair containing a teddy was 'wrong'. Daughter explained it was exactly what HER son did - he pushed his son in a pushchair.

My grandsons also enjoy playing with one of my dolls houses (no lights and furniture I don't like). Goodness knows what the woman would say about that! :-\

Anyway, they also have figures with this house. Their favourite one is 'Crazy Cat Lady', that was given to one of my daughters as a joke.
The grandsons say it reminds them of me :-|
Just looked online - 'Crazy Cat Lady' was a cheap, joke present.

My youngest son had a doll's pink push chair with a doll in it, it what he wanted so i bought it for him,, after a while he used it in the garden to transport rubbish from one place to another..lol

But i will say he is now a very hands on and caring father to his children.
