Its sad that she is more concerned about the money than the health and well being of her granddaughter. She will get over it.

My DD is 4.. If i see the shoes off the doll they get thrown out. Usually i super glue barbies shoes to barbies toosies. She will get over it, they would have been lost in .10 seconds anyway.

pshhh... I'd throw 'em away too.  Tell her if she bought something age appropriate you wouldn't have to throw 'em out.

I would have done the same thing. Just let her know to pay attention to age groups on the toys from now on.

First off, your daughter is a little doll.

You did what was safe for your daughter and if she doesn't like it then that is just tough.

Good luck.

Only a MIL... I have a bunch of barbie shoes and other barbie accessories in our junk drawer.. I don't throw them out because they will eventually be able to have all of the little pieces

My MIL would buy barbie or kelly for my daughter was very small, like 18 months. I just told her that I took the shoes or other tiny parts and put them up for when she would older. Then I would secretly want to jab my MIL's eyes out every time I had to change their clothes a million times in a day.

You could have just taken them away from her didn't need to throw them away.   I took all the shoes from my daughters barbie dolls I just recently gave them back to her since she doesn't put things in her mouth anymore.

It's her fault, it says on the package 3+!  But I personally would have kept it and put it away until she was older.
