As a pediatrician, I often hear about the toys that can drive parents to the brink of insanity. Ever experienced the incessant noise from a Baby Alive doll? It’s like a one-way ticket to a headache, and good luck silencing that three-minute monologue once it kicks in. Then there are those toys that mysteriously activate in the dead of night, leaving parents to wonder if their home has turned into a haunted house. What gives?
