YouTube Family Is Promoting a $340 Baby Doll Designed to Look Like Their Infant Son

A family of YouTubers from the UK is offering fans a chance to buy a baby doll that looks like their newborn son, Jace, Buzzfeed News reports.

Chris and Sarah Ingham are parents to four children and dedicate their Vlog to following the lives of their family of six. When Jace was born in March, the entire labor and delivery was shared in a video posted on their YouTube channel. Last month, the couple surprised two of their daughters during a Vlog, where they revealed they made a lifelike baby doll that looks like Jace.

The doll was made by Mary Shortle, a UK toy designer, and the limited-edition, handmade toy depicts the baby when he was two weeks old. “The realistically adorable features allow you to have your own little Jace,” the website boasts. The doll is dressed in a onesie, and comes with three outfits, a hat, pacifier, pacifier clip and diapers. Customers will also receive a birth certificate signed by the Ingham family.

Perhaps the biggest selling point for fans is the exclusive invitation to a meet the Inghams. Those who buy the doll have the opportunity to attend a tea party with their Baby Jace replica. While there, they’ll be able to meet and greet with the famous Vlogging family.

The doll retails for £279, about $340 US dollars. Needless to say, the news was met with some mixed reviews. While some were eager to get their hands on the toy, others find fault with the parents’ latest business venture.

“Imagine finding out your parents once sold realistic dolls of the newborn you online for £300,” says one Twitter user.

“They literally had a child and said ‘[you’re going to] makes us rich,” another note reads.

“The Ingham family has gone way too far…Imagine when the kid gets older and finds out that 250 people have a doll that looks exactly like him,” comments another.

We live in an age of oversharing, and protecting kids’ privacy online is sometimes overlooked. It makes sense: You’re bursting with parental pride and want the world to see how amazing your little one is. But for your child’s safety, it’s important to stop and think before putting those photos online, or risk giving away personal information without even realizing. Take one couple, whose newborn was almost kidnapped because of information that was posted on Facebook. Click here for more information on how to keep baby safe in the inevitable age of “sharenting.”
