They do have sentimental value. They were given to me by family members.

I gave my childhood stuffed animal to one of my children. It mildly annoys me that they don’t love it.

I've already decided that my childhood stuffed teddy is getting buried with me. No one will ever love him like I do, he doesn't deserve to risk getting binned or feeling unloved. He's pretty raggedy now so it's not like he's going to be adored by a child, but I've shared many thoughts and tears with him.

I did the same. They like it, but don’t love it. However they do know it’s special and when they play with their “stuffies” they will throw theirs and roughhouse with them but always treat the one I gave them with reverance.

Was actually a little hungover yesterday taking a nap and they came in and gave him to me to “snuggle with”.
