Child’s toy spells ‘WANKER’

A Birmingham mother is furious at Toys’R’Us for selling her an “indecent” toy for her child.

Sally James, 24, bought the set of spelling bricks for her four year-old son, Brooklyn.

“I was hoping to help him recognise a few basic words for when he goes to school next year.”

Miss James, a part-time supermarket worker, had specifically selected the spelling bricks from the educational department in her local Toys’R'Us superstore.

She unpacked them at home and left her son playing with them whilst she went to fetch herself a can of Red Bull.  She made a shocking discovery upon her return moments later.

“I was shocked.  There in front of me, bold as you like, was the word WANKER!”

blockscomment“How can Toys’R’Us sell such filth?  Brooklyn is only four, he shouldn’t be exposed to words like that for at least another three or four years.  It’s completely unacceptable.”

Miss James admitted that the bricks have also been used to create the words, WANK, DICK, and FUCK.

Toys’R’Us were unavailable for comment.
