Valencia Street, Are You Mom Enough?

I was walking down Valencia a little while ago and spotted this succulent window display (I don't remember expect when--I unsuccessfully tried to repress the ordeal).  Is this really necessary?  No one wants to be bombarded with the image of 4-year-old mannequin sucking the teet of its 26-year-old mannequin mother when stumbling down the street in search of a smoothie.  And think of how that poor little mannequin will feel when it's all grown up and living its young adult mannequin life... being the laughing stock of lunch room in its plastic high school.

All to sell some breast-feeding foot stools.  For shame.

Yeah, I got the reference, but there's no way that's a dedicated breastfeeding stool, right?

I believe it is...

It's actually meant for places like the kitchen, so the wee one won't fall over when playing in the sink, counter, singing and eating cheerios, etc.
But, still. Funny display.
