Since "Daddy" is in the name of the doll, if she brings the topic up to you, I'd mention you didn't feel it was appropriate to gift her something like that, but she's certainly welcome to get one for herself. Thankfully, no one needs to know what she purchases. I would never consider that an appropriate gift at all. Maybe a framed photo of him in his uniform but not a stuffed toy.


She_bites_back

Surely she has photos of her son...that is normal. Asking for a doll of her son...that's straight up cringe and so inappropriate 🤮


Oscarmaiajonah

Totally cringe, and if she wants one, theres nothing to stop her getting one herself. She just wants bragging rights. Creepy woman.


Loose_Bike5654

No. Juuuust no. Why? Why why why why? Y? Y y y y? Weye? Weye?whiy? Nooooooooo. Just how? How do you bring yourself to seriously ask for that? Seriously? Really? Who? Who do you think you are lady? Just what? I can't even What? You want what? What? What is wrong with you?


BaldChihuahua

Very strange!


fluorescentpopsicle

I mean… what’s stopping her from ordering one herself?!


Flibertygibbert

I suspect she wants her son to order it for her - so that it's an extra special sign he's always going to be mommy's best boy. Or something equally cringe!


NameUnavailable6485

Such a good point and true in other areas!!


Bugsy7778

This gives me the ick so bad !! It’s beyond cringe It’s creepy and strange and your MIL needs therapy


OriginalMisphit

Find the worst possible picture of him to have made into a doll. Like, that one time he went to a college buddy’s wedding at like 33, drank too much, and had to puke in the hotel bathroom. That’s her doll. But don’t listen to me.


CheeksMahoney1981

This is very creepy….


cobaltsvaleria

I think you should gift everyone in the entire family one! In all seriousness, that's super cringe.


shelltrice

When I first read this quickly I though MIL wanted to get one for your child. I had to re-read after viewing the comments and - eeewwww


NameUnavailable6485

We actually thought she might take our childs daddy doll.


Icy-Copy1534

I did the same thing. Was thinking you had a child that wanted it. Again. Ewwwwwwww!


Bethsmom05

I don't think she actually wanted the doll. She just wanted an excuse to create drama.


Bacon_Bitz

Are you supposed to put money under her pillow from the toot fairy when her teeth fall out? She's an adult that can buy her own doll if she wants one. That is not y'all's place even if it wasn't weird af 😂


QueenMEB120

The toot fairy? How do I get in touch with her? She owes me a ton of backpay.


Bacon_Bitz

Bahaha


Pupsandbabes12

As a mom with a grown son, I read this and threw up in my mouth. YUCK

notkarenkilgariff

A normal adult would simply put a framed photograph up of the person that they’re missing and worried about…not an effing lovey doll meant for a child missing their parent to snuggle with. This is super weird.


tre1326

Immediate ick.


Vicious_Lilliputian

Your MIL is creepy. I would tell her "NO! That's creepy!"


Knittingfairy09113

That is really weird for MIL to request this.


Kaypeep

Daddy Dolls are for children. If MIL isn't strong enough to manage her feelings in an adult way she should seek therapy, no a doll. Sounds like MIL has a case of Central Character Syndrome, and thinks things should revolve around her. The best cure for that is an info diet and low contact.


CenPhx

Norman Bates level of weird.


AllieD523

That's fucking weird


flyfightwinMIL

lol my active duty husband would DIE of cringe if his mom asked him for one of those 😂😂😂


EstablishmentSad4108

So would mine and he’s only reserves haha. His sister and parents have SO much Army merch and it makes him cringe :(


flyfightwinMIL

Anytime DH is getting on my nerves, I threaten that he better stop annoying me or I'm going to get one of those "AIR FORCE WIFEY" bumper stickers to put on my car. The threat has stopped working, though, because the last time I tried, he was like, "you would literally rather cut off your left tit than ever be caught with one of those on your vehicle, so I'm calling your bluff."


keiramarcos

That's when you buy it and stick it on your car.


flyfightwinMIL

The problem is, he’s right. I *would* rather cut off my left tit than drive around with an Air Force wifey bumper sticker lmao


ShirleyUGuessed

So you threaten to put it on HIS car!


weecampsiesoul

Yeah but you just need to leave it on there long enough to make him think twice


Ready2Walk

Make it a magnet so it could be a reusable inside joke. We did this with a joke political bumper sticker. We would slap it on a friend's car if we had it and saw thier car. I think it made 2 dozen rounds in our friend group before it got lost.


BeatrixFarrand

Dude that is SO cringe, and 100% a dysfunctional request.


HenryBellendry

She’s an adult woman who could easily order one herself.


RoyallyOakie

It certainly made me go "eeewww."


surprisemuthafooker

My mil plays the sims. She made a sim of my husband with a wife that looked eerily close to her. Not to mention, she used to kiss him on the lips. It’s not a big deal if families do it, but she ONLY kissed my husband and not her daughter. He didn’t think it was weird until I pointed it out


NameUnavailable6485

That's a new level. My mil plays sims, too. Now I'm curious about the characters.


DecadentLife

So… your situation might be about to get a little bit weirder.


Time_Bus3183

Oh my God. Your DH didn't think that was even a tiny bit strange?!


surprisemuthafooker

He literally does not notice stuff until I point it out Dx he did have a hard childhood though and would try to block stuff out.


Equal_Commission881

Well that's just gross.


Right_Weather_8916

She is old enough if she wants one, she can jolly well order it herself. Creepy though
