25 Inappropriate Kids' Toys

Online Creations That Mix Sex, Tattoos and Childhood

— September 19, 2009 — Naughty
There was a time when Barbie was a controversial children’s toy. Her impossibly tall and skinny physique were bad enough, especially for parents considering the influences they wanted around their kids.

But these toys make Barbie look like a perfect role model. They’re simply outrageous. From a tattoo parlor (EASY-BAKE oven style) to a pole dancing doll, these non-child friendly products cross the line. No one in their right mind would think these toys are appropriate for children.

Some of them aren’t even appropriate for adults.
