But their joy quickly turned to disgust when they got home and realised that instead of crying when tickled the £32.99 toy sounds like it says “f*ck, f*ck, f*ck it.” And when Anthony asked Emily if she wanted a drink the youngster innocently replied: ‘f*ck it’. He was so angry he has taken the Chinese-made toy away from her but fears the damage has already been done.
Anthony, 39, said: “We opened the packaging on the doll and handed it to Emily. She was so excited to play with her new toy but as soon as she pressed its belly, we heard it say the swear word. Sarah and I were gobsmacked. When we played it again, it was clear that it was saying ‘f*ck.’ We’ve had to take it away from her but it is too late. Emily is only two but already copying the doll. She keeps saying ‘f*ck it’ – I don’t know how to stop her.”

Sarah, 22, said: “When we first heard the doll swear, we couldn’t believe it. We had to play it again to make sure we were hearing right. We soon realised the doll was saying ‘f*ck, f*ck, f*ck it’ instead of crying. Emily was so upset when we snatched it off her.” Anthony added: “Hearing our two year old daughter swearing every day is just awful. I think it’s disgraceful that Toys R Us have sold us such a dirty toy.” The parents think the doll should be crying instead of uttering an expletive.

The more the parents make an issue of this, the more the kid will say the words.
If this is the worst the parents have to deal with as parents, they can sit back and relax.
Just f*ck it.

When my daughter was 2, she didn't just learn the word, but how to use it correctly in multiple contexts. Set a toy down, then couldn't find it? "What the fuck?" Look out the window during a thunderstorm just as a very loud roll of thunder breaks, scaring her? "Holy fuck!"
Oh the joys of separate households.
