The world of "reborn" babies, tender or disturbing?

They fascinate or disturb. They are hyper-realistic babies, the reborn, of which we have spoken to you sometimes. Some silicone dolls that reproduce, almost to the last detail, a newborn baby.

The hair, the skin with its veins, the tongue, the weight ... the doll is tried to be the closest thing to a baby. And it is true that these dolls can have therapeutic purposes, but to what extent is it mentally healthy for a person to live an absolute fiction with reborn dolls?

Tonight the television show "Samantha Connection" returns to Cuatro and he does so by introducing himself to this world of reborn babies from the hands of several protagonists. Will you reveal a little more about these dolls and their owners? The trailer of the program gives enough of itself and has images that have impressed me.

Above all, because it is seen that, beyond collecting (for tastes, colors), the love for these dolls can lead to dependence. I don't know what you will think, but see that a person "feeds", lulls, bathes, takes to the hairdresser and takes these babies for a walk is quite disturbing.

With real clothes, with real trolleys, with real bathtubs. Nothing is a toy, except, what is more important and does not seem to want to see, baby.

The identification bracelet, and the birth and adoption certificates that are delivered with the baby are also not real. These reborn are not purchased (although they cost between 400 and 6,000 euros), they are "adopted".

I do not deny the work of an artist behind these babies, they are many hours dedicated to perfecting the doll, to make his touch almost real. Some reborn They can even pretend they eat, pee or breathe.

Some people who "adopt" babies are couples who have not been able to have children (but have up to eight reborn) or women who have had abortions. In the report we will also meet a "reborn artist".

Anyway, what This booming world of reborn babies may have lights and shadows. Tender or disturbing, probably after watching the report we can get a better idea of ​​what is behind these hyperrealistic dolls. But after the trailer I think I'm more prepared to worry than to get tender…
