Speaking as a father and grandfather, I don't think we need to give kids dolls that encourage yelling.
Me: "Why are you shouting at Baby Doodles?"
Kid: "You're so dumb. She's a deaf doll. She won't hear me unless I scream at her. Like this. I mean LIKE THISSSSSSSSSSSSS!"
As a #deaf person I used to have conversations with my toy Snoopy.
I’ve watched my kids have conversations with their toys.
Life’s too short for constant adulting.
