M3gan Welcome 2 the Hood
Imagine a father purchasing this doll for his daughter. He is estranged from his wife. The wife is pissed he bought a white doll not realizing the doll is ridiculously expensive and he is DESPERATE to prove his worth. All of the single Black mother tropes are at play. But the kid in a redolently white school. The passive aggressiveness Karens fake woke, the black father feeling like he is losing his daughter literally and spiritually. The important of being present in your child life the influence of social media and technology especially on a young Black girl seeking acceptance.
TOO HEAVY!
It's gotta be less serious for these people to get it.
Maybe the doll looks just like the daughter.
Father is a conservative businessman; mother is a hood thot (got with dude on his way up)
The doll teaches the daughter how to successfully navigate drastically different influences with code switching.
The doll is too extra with it in both directions - stands in for daughter in some scenes to cause drama/conflict to ultimate resolve.
