off avoiding

There's a reason why we're encouraged to get rid of our toys when we get
older. If you believe what your parents (or mental health professionals) say,
associating with your action figures, stuffed animals and other childhood "pals"
too late in life may impair your ability to relate to real people.
For further proof of this, look no further than the new live-action
comedy-fantasy "Ted," in theaters June 29.
Bing: More about 'Ted' | More about Mark Wahlberg
The movie follows John (Mark Wahlberg), a man whose best
friend is, quite literally, a walking, talking teddy bear (a CGI-animated
creation that is voiced by Seth MacFarlane). Only this is no
sweet-natured Winnie the Pooh. No, this is a foul-mouthed, foul-tempered and
dirty-minded teddy whose bad behavior may mess up things with John's love
interest, Lori (Mila Kunis).
