Two parents have claimed that a toy cow they bought for their child advocates 'learning sex'.
Jodie Cairns, 20, and her partner Zac Walker, 20, of Wester Hailes, had given the Moosical Beads plush toy to their 4-month old son Ethan, Edinburgh Evening News reports.
According to the lyric sheet, the cow sings: "I'm a cow come play with me / Learning colours and shapes, yippee! / A,B,C and 1,2,3 / We'll have so much fun, you'll see."
However, the couple are convinced that the singing product from electronic toy company VTech sings "learning colours and sex".
Cairns said: "Ethan's grandma bought the toy from Tesco in March as a present, but we didn't get it out of the box because he was too little. Then yesterday we started playing with it and we noticed that it appeared to be saying 'sex'.
"We listened to it again and again and thought 'Oh my God'. It's shocking - what if my boy had been a lot older? What would they say about us as parents."
Ethan's grandfather Brian Walker, 55, added: "I recorded it on my computer so I could get a clearer version of the song, and I played it over and over. I'm certain it's saying 'sex'.
"My theory is that some technician has been having a laugh, but I suppose somebody could have gotten the word wrong by accident as it was made in China. We know he's just young and doesn't understand now, but what if a toddler was listening to it?"
Grandmother Beverley Walker said: "We've confiscated the cow."
