Talk:Comfort object

message: "One Wikipedian's stuffed puppy" - Is this really appropriate? I have no objection to the picture itself, but I think the description ought to be more detached and neutral.

message: I also found one for the elderly at http://www.elderweb.com/home/node/3088, but the site is offline right now so I thought the one I found would be better. I agree, they're pretty important, and I think there should be more here. I'll glance and see if I can add any more, but I don't have time to go into great detail on one.Somebody or his brother (talk) 13:10, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Pop culture

message: The source (phrases.org) claims that comic strip Peanuts cannot be the origin of the term "security blanket", because "It wasn't until 1956, in "Good Grief, More Peanuts", that the item was given a name by Linus: "This is a 'security and happiness' blanket. All little kids carry them."". And then there is that one newspaper clip from November 1954 where the phrase is used, arguably before Schulz used it. However, that Peanuts quote is actually taken from a sunday strip that was originally published in October 24, 1954 (see it here). And in the strip the line is said by Charlie Brown, not Linus. It would seem that Shulz was first after all, unless there's some other evidence for earlier uses of the term. --Risukarhi (talk) 00:47, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Who said it first? 

message: The two or so large body paragraphs in "In child psychology" don't feel very "Wikipedian" to me, and the lack of sources leads me to think that maybe it's original research? Smortypi (talk) 05:37, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The diagram doesn't seem very informative either.  (Without reading the main article text, I would assume it was saying that stars and teddy-bears can form a protective barrier between the baby and the horrifying floating mask). Iapetus (talk) 15:31, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Research Process and Methodology - FA22 - Sect 200 - Thu

message: I removed the following material on My Therapy Buddy because it describes this failed product in terms of how it was hyped but aside from the self-claim of being a transitional object it doesn't otherwise connect to the points being made in this section. By contrast the other items mentioned are supported by research. This reads like an ad, and in any case it is an ad for a failed product that seems non-notable at this point. 
:: Inventor Richard Kopelle created My Therapy Buddy (MTB), sometimes shortened to just Therapy Buddy, in 2002 as a self-described transitional object to benefit "one's emotional well-being". When squeezed, the blue creature speaks the phrase "everything is going to be all right." The invention was rejected in the first season of American Inventor, but went on to become a semi-finalist in the second season. My Therapy Buddy also appeared on Shark Tank but did not receive any offers. A smaller form, Baby My Therapy Buddy or just Baby Buddy, was offered at a lower price.  no more buddies were being produced.
