Mums boycott dildo toy
Parents are boycotting a children's toy manufacturer after it launched a play puppet for toddlers - shaped just like a dildo.
Makers Wild Planet launched the 'Aquapet' in Germany this month which is supposed to give youngsters hours of innocent fun.
But furious mums have called for it to be withdrawn because it looks just like a vibrator.
"Childhood should be innocent. There's no reason for it to be this shape and no parent should buy anything from this company until they take it off the shelves," said one.
