Actually, most stuffed animals were invented to be a toy for small children, but now they have conquered folks of all ages! Both kids and old people want the companion-sometimes they can talk to, take care of and love.Some parents are quite busy for work and the toys are considered as ideal companion to children, thus many children have their plush toys at small ages.
Unsimilar to pets, stuffed toys are more easy to play and talk with. They are not real, you don't need to worry about the hygiene and safety. Many children would love to hug them to sleep rather than a dirty pet. With a stuffed toy, you will never feel lonely even if you are alone. So for people who expect companion, getting rid of the stuffed animals is impossible.
