There was a documentary on these not too long ago on BBC America. The women would push them around in strollers, buy them expensive, designer-brand clothes, and one even traveled all the way to America [From England to Seattle] to pick up what she thought would be her perfect baby. When she arrived, she received her doll and after bonding with it for a while, she found a crack in the doll's head. She had a bit of a melt down and said the doll was ruined.
One woman bought a doll to look just like her grandson when he was a baby. His mother moved him across the country and she missed him, so she had a doll made in his likeness.
I slightly understand the empty nest aspect of this, but it's still a bit weird, in my opinion. To each his or her own, though, because who am I to stop anyone?
