My sisters and I were all doll modifiers, and my mom didn't care. She just made clear to us that (a) we had to keep our hands off of her old toys (which we did with no problem), and (b) she was *not* going to buy replacements for any modified toys that we were unhappy with. It seemed to work out pretty well for us.
Chuckles hasn't done anything like that so far. Squeaky destroys things just for the joy of feeling them break, but he seems to be more careful with the toys that he has a real emotional connection with.
