Brazilian Congress Debates Reborn Dolls Amid Growing Mental Health Concerns in India
Published on 6.10.25
The rise of "reborn" dolls has sparked concerns about their potential impact on mental health. In Brazil, a recent trend of collecting these lifelike dolls has led to debate in Congress, with lawmakers questioning whether this fascination is a sign of deeper psychological issues.
In India, the Labubu dolls have become an internet sensation, with many users fascinated by their unique design. However, some experts warn that these dolls may be contributing to a growing trend of "virtual parenting," where individuals form emotional bonds with inanimate objects rather than real children. This phenomenon has raised concerns about the potential long-term effects on mental health, particularly among those who are already vulnerable.
The debate surrounding reborn dolls highlights the complex relationship between technology and human psychology. While some see these dolls as harmless novelties, others believe they may be a symptom of a larger issue - the increasing isolation and disconnection of modern society.
