The ‘Barbie’ movie has people buying ‘emotional support’ dolls. Psychologists say that’s a good thing
"The “Barbie” movie is a bona fide cultural moment. Not only has it set box office records and ushered in a massive spike in Barbie sales, it’s also inspired fascinating conversations about childhood and mental health.
Since the movie’s release in July, adults on TikTok and other social media platforms have documented themselves reconnecting with their inner child through little rituals like buying so-called “emotional support Barbies.” (CNN and “Barbie” movie distributor Warner Bros. Pictures share parent company Warner Bros. Discovery.)
Some videos show people carefully roaming toy aisles to pick out dolls that speak to their careers, identities or just their sense of whimsy. They unbox them with care, stroking their hair reverently, and suddenly, they’re kids again."
