This needs to become a trend in the US: "https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/04/30/japans-rent-a-family-industry"
Imagine if a person could rent a family member with specific requests when wanted, pay some money then the "family member" leaves once the agreement ends. The teenage daughter who ran away at 15? Just rent a teenage daughter of 15 and tell the nice folks how you want the teenage daughter to act and what to say. Pay about $375 and voila! Kodak moments at a small price and everyone is happy! Sounds like a win win to me. Just skip all the unnecessary drudgery. Breeding isn't necessary. And once someone gets their fill of a "family member" they can stop renting one. Desperate for a baby? Rent one until reality sets in and no shame in stopping the rental.
This service goes so far as to create weddings for people which cost around $47K for unfortunate souls who have insistent parents that want them to marry but the son/daughter isn't interested. Everyone but the parents are actors. Can think of much better things to do with $47K but hundreds of people have purchase this so overbearing parents must be a big thing in Japan.
Think this service really has promise in lots of areas! I'd like to see a virtual service available at a monthly fee for people who want virtual reality and rental in one. It could be great therapy for people who've lost a loved one. Especially people who are elderly and don't have any family living with them or their spouse has died.
