Some parents shared stories of disposing of Labubu toys after hearing Kathleen's warnings, mentioning concerns about the dolls' symbolism and impact on their children. Despite the backlash she anticipated for her opinion, Kathleen maintained her stance, mentioning that she understands the potential responses to her statement that she doesn't find the toys cute.
