    This document discusses the concept of a "changeling" from medieval English folklore, where fairies would secretly replace a human baby with one of their own. It examines how this idea reflects on themes of parenthood and the sense of a child's presence being replaced with an absence. It also references Shakespeare's Titania and Oberon from A Midsummer Night's Dream as an example of fairies depicted as parents in folklore.
